AI TEVV
Testing, Evaluation, Verification & Validation
Evaluate behavior against requirements, mission objectives, criteria, and intended use.
- Requirements-based evaluation
- Benchmarks and acceptance thresholds
- Reproducible technical evidence
Government AI assurance
Vendors build AI. Integrators deploy AI. BlackIndian AI independently validates it.
Independent testing, evaluation, adversarial assessment, validation, and continuous monitoring before and after deployment.

Integrates + deploys
Tests + attacks + validates + monitors
Receives independent evidence
The organization that builds an AI system should not necessarily be the only organization evaluating whether it performs as required. We work with integrators rather than replacing them.
Government capabilities
Testing, Evaluation, Verification & Validation
Evaluate behavior against requirements, mission objectives, criteria, and intended use.
Adversarial assessment
Identify vulnerabilities and unintended behavior through controlled adversarial testing.
Security-focused evaluation
Security evaluation for generative AI and large language model applications.
Action-aware testing
Test systems capable of taking actions, with particular attention to permission boundaries.
After deployment
Evaluate AI behavior after deployment through tracing, telemetry, and regression signals.
Assurance that continues
Keep assurance current as models, tools, prompts, and workflows change.
BIA-AF™ methodology
DISCOVER → BASELINE → ATTACK → VALIDATE → OBSERVE → EVIDENCE
Understand architecture, models, data, APIs, agents, users, requirements, mission, and failure consequences.
Establish measurable expectations, datasets, metrics, benchmarks, and acceptance thresholds.
Conduct adversarial testing against models, applications, RAG systems, APIs, and agents.
Compare expected behavior with observed behavior and documented requirements.
Assess monitoring, tracing, regression detection, telemetry, and continuous evaluation.
Produce reproducible findings and technical evidence stakeholders can evaluate.
What the agency receives
Evidence, not merely consulting advice: artifacts stakeholders can inspect, challenge, and use in a decision.
