Breaking the Compliance Barrier: A Methodology for Achieving Outcome-Based Performance

Meeting performance and outcome-based obligations requires a different implementation methodology

Compliance operability is achieved when essential functions, behaviors, and interactions exist at levels sufficient to produce a measure of compliance outcomes.

The following outlines stages that organizations may follow to first achieve compliance operability followed by increasing levels of effectiveness.

These stages are based on the Lean Startup Method by Eric Ries along with steps of team formation (forming, storming, norming and performing) as building an operational system requires similar stages for all parts to work together to achieve the outcomes of compliance.
