How the scores read
- 5 of 5 — Inspection-ready. Your governance is living, not laminated.
- 3–4 — Solid bones, but gaps an assessor will find before you do. Fix them now, while it's on your terms.
- 0–2 — Your team is feeding the administrative beast. It's not a workload problem — it's a systems problem, and it's fixable.
