Policy Assessment Center
Policy Assessment Center
Audit policies end-to-end with benchmarks, implementation audits, and actionable training.
We have guided agencies through consent decrees, DOJ investigations, and state-level compliance mandates. Our top-down review maps policy, supervision, and practice to expose gaps before they become crises.
A four-step approach
From discovery to implementation
We align your policies with statutory requirements, benchmark against best practices, and ensure every recommendation is actionable.
Step 1
Discovery & Data Collection
Gather directives, training records, IA files, and real-world outputs to understand practice.
Step 2
Policy Review & Benchmarking
Compare against statutory requirements, case law, and best-practice standards nationwide.
Step 3
Implementation Audit
Observe rollouts, supervisory inspections, and documentation trails to measure fidelity.
Step 4
Recommendations & Training
Deliver plain-language directives, implementation plan, and training to embed change.
