I have expended much time and treasure into building my
Compliance Assurance Management System but I don’t get
the compliance performance I need. Why???
1. There are several different Management System constructs with some better for
achieving compliance than others. You might need to upgrade your approach.
2. The depth that your Management System dives into the organization can also
determine how successful it is in achieving compliance. Maybe your overall
deployment strategy is not suited for compliance point performance.

Maybe you have concentrated on one more than the other.
