  5. Defined scope, method/criteria, evidence/input coverage, timing, and other parameters needed for meaningful comparison.
  6. The rate at which capability improves over time, measured from baseline through reassessment.

  18. Reduce horizontal scope to what can be credibly assessed rather than pretend coverage exists.
  19. Improvement changes processes, methods, tools, roles, behavior, and culture; DMMA can align perspectives and support shared vision.
