Three important parts of a SignalStamp assessment
These points explain most of the results shown in SignalStamp.
Maturity and evidence confidence are separate
Maturity describes how well a practice is operating. Evidence confidence describes how strongly identifiable records support the answer.
Important findings need attention
A strong overall result can still include practices that require review or improvement.
Read results in context
Consider the assessment scope, supporting information and follow-up actions when explaining a result.
Readiness bands
The band describes the assessed maturity result. It does not certify compliance or independent verification.
