A safety-gate is a formal decision point embedded within a project or product development lifecycle, where compliance with specified safety criteria is evaluated and a documented go/no-go ruling is issued before the project may advance to the next stage. Its parameters are: (1) the lifecycle stage at which it occurs, (2) the safety criteria against which compliance is measured, (3) the decision authority vested in the gatekeepers, and (4) the documented outcome that either authorizes or blocks progression. It persists through governance frameworks, regulatory mandates, and organizational procedure manuals that institutionalize the practice of verifying safety at critical junctures rather than attempting to retrofit it after the fact.
