Roadmap

SCOPE is a living framework. Here is where it is headed - and how you can help shape it.

Timeline

v1.0 Foundation

Target: end of March 2026

A complete, self-contained framework with all dimensions authored, all criteria refined, and the core tooling in place.

  • done Sovereignty matrix with 12 dimensions
  • done Interactive self-assessment with radar chart export
  • done Criteria browser with search, filter, and print export
  • done Tabbed dimension navigation
  • in progress All 12 dimensions fully authored with evidence guidance
  • in progress All criteria refined for sovereignty focus
  • in progress Community outreach and initial feedback
v2.0 Community

Target: May 2026

Opening the framework to contributors. From a single-author project to a collectively governed body of knowledge.

  • planned Framework conceptually stress-tested through community review
  • planned Browser-based dimension and criteria editing with draft and review workflow
  • planned Democratic approval process for framework changes
  • planned Editorial governance process defined
  • planned Privacy-first operation with no tracking and full regulatory compliance

Get involved

You do not need to be a sovereignty expert. If you have operational experience with cloud providers, identity systems, or regulatory compliance, you already have domain knowledge this framework needs.

Expand a dimension

Five dimensions are waiting for deeper analysis. Each one is a self-contained contribution - pick one that matches your expertise.

Sharpen the criteria

Every criterion should test sovereignty, not security hygiene. Review them, challenge them, make them better.

Stress-test the model

Apply SCOPE to your organisation. Where does the model hold up? Where does it fall short? Real-world feedback is the most valuable kind.

Reach out at to start a conversation. Every contribution matters, from a single criterion to an entire dimension.
