Identification of Deviations from the Standard
THIS PAGE IS UNDER DEVELOPMENT!
Upon reading this page, the reader should understand how a deviation from the standard was identified. The reader should also understand the objective was to collect numerous examples of deviation as a means to show a pattern of poor governance. The authenticity of each deviation could be debated since MC provided scant information to assess. However, a pattern of governance gaps could be used to develop a case for action.
Applicability Determination
As discussed in Comparison of Observations to a Standard, the initial comparison of MC decision-making and implementation practices sought to determine if an observation was a governance practice expected by a government entity. Some of my observations were based on business experience, which didn't always align with government governance. The prior assessment step determined if the observation was applicable to the Green Book. Could MC performance be compared to the Green Book standards? If yes, continue to this step in the assessment process.
