1. The document outlines an approach to compliance management that includes establishing standards and guidance, managing assets and their certification, conducting audits, and reporting.
2. Key elements of the compliance approach include developing a comprehensive suite of performance standards and guidance documents, maintaining an asset database to track certification and maintenance, conducting risk-based audits that range from deep to standard depending on the asset, and reporting results to management and boards.
3. A scoring system is presented to determine audit levels for different assets based on their severity, likelihood, and complexity, with higher risk assets receiving deeper audits.

safety
Why ? – certain assets and
activities warrant additional audit
– risk, severity, likelihood and
complexity of delivery determine
the targets.
Who ? – balance of internal and
external resource structured
through eg HV Mgmt. Team,
Compliance Forum,
What ? – quantitive, qualitative,
methodology, training (int. and
ext.) recording, reporting ,
benchmark compliance.
Compliance Deep Audit
Volatile, subject to multiple
influences, based on 3rd party
assessed risk, complex layered
delivery with high risk of supply chain
failure – DEEP AUDIT NEEDED
Less complex delivery requirements,
more fully defined, less risk based
and less likelihood of process failure
by supply chain – STD Quantitive/
Qualitative Audit suffices?
Proposed Graduated Approach
Typically routine delivery
requirements , generic delivery
through supply chain/ PiC, low
likelihood of process failure. - – STD
Quantitive/ Qualitative Audit
suffices less frequently.
