timeline; (2) the milestones needed to
successfully achieve these compliance
requirements, including the development
and testing of standards; (3) the underlying
standards needed to achieve those milestones
and requirements; (4) the interdependencies
of the various compliance requirements,
milestones and standards development
processes; (5) the gaps, overlaps and issues
with these requirements; and, (6)
opportunities for better alignment,
synergistic coordination, and most effective,
appropriate sequencing of requirements,
milestones and standards development.
