    1. the overall budget for the compliance management system
    2. organisational requirements and criteria for the compliance management system.

Note: If you are basing your assessment on the Charity-Care case study, you will need to meet with your assessor to receive this information.

  1. Develop a research plan which outlines:
    1. research tasks to be undertaken
    2. proposed research methods; including survey tools to gather qualitative and quantitative information on, for example, organisational compliance performance figures, compliance culture, etc.
  2. Develop survey tools to capture organisational data.
  3. Collect organisational data on compliance performance.

Note: If you are basing your assessment on the Charity-Care case study, you will need to meet with your assessor to receive this information.

  1. Research and identify the compliance requirements that are applicable to the organisation, including:
    1. internal compliance requirements as described by organisational policy and procedure documents
    2. external compliance requirements as described by state/territory regulatory bodies and statutory requirements, and the Australian standards for compliance, records management and risk management

  2. For each identified compliance requirement, research the:
    1. areas of the organisation most affected by the compliance requirements
    2. organisational compliance data, including, for example, financial fraud, accident figures, training numbers, customer complaints, etc.
    3. risks involved for non-compliance with requirements
    4. penalties for breaching compliance requirements
    5. ways of ensuring ongoing compliance with the requirements.
  3. Review the established criteria for the compliance management system, and use these to:
    1. identify available options for a compliance management system for all of the identified compliance requirements
    2. compare the identified compliance management options against each other and the established criteria
    3. make a recommendation on system components.
  4. Using the information you have gathered from steps 6–8 above, develop a summary report in line with the headings required in the scenario.
  5. Write a reflection on the process you undertook to research and prepare the report. Include description of:
    1. the type of research undertaken
    2. the development of the research plan
    3. the development of survey tools to collect required data to select compliance
    4. analysis of qualitative and quantitative data.
