Future Certification Considerations

Where this pillar is heading.

CABO is a living framework. The following considerations are currently under review for future versions of the Governance pillar. They are signals, not current requirements — current certification remains anchored to the scope, evidence, and controls above.

Documented climate-risk oversight at board level
Digital decision records for fleet electrification programmes
Integration with city-wide mobility governance frameworks
