This Authority Document has 68 citations mapped to 55 UCF Common Control IDs. The document as a whole was last reviewed and released on 2021-04-13.

Percent (%) of Citations with multiple mandates: 37.8%

Percent (%) of terms that were non-standard: 4.30% The number of non-standard terms doesn't affect UCF users as the UCF team have already mapped those terms to standard terms in the Compliance Dictionary.

Percent (%) of terms mapped into the AD's glossary: 3.6% Primary verbs and nouns not mapped into an AD's glossary can point to the AD's authors not paying attention to the definitions of their terms.

Percent (%) of terms where fewer than 5 other ADs referenced the term: 19.1% Any term in this category is not very widely used by the rest of the compliance community and therefore will more than likely need to be further investigated for any implications it might bring.

Percent (%) of mandates where only 1 to 5 other ADs mapped to the Common Control: 71.4% Mandates that aren't widely called for will take longer to implement than mandates that are more familiar.

Number of mandates where 0 other ADs mapped to the Common Control: 0% These mandates are only called for by this AD, making them particularly thorny to implement, as this AD is the "lone wolf" in asking for them to be followed.
