Requirements, guidance
and standards.
Requirements, guidance and the standards organisations say they follow.
Published guidance
and reported alignment
are different measures.
Documents create
a shared reference.
Information requirements make expectations explicit. Practitioner guidance helps explain them. Specifications may align with wider standards.
Organisations then report their own alignment with information-management standards. The result is a separate measure of practice.
