Abstract
A method, apparatus and computer-usable medium for a policy guidance system comprising one or more Cartesian coordinate plots of a policy's adherence and compliance guidelines. One or more segmented questionnaires are created, comprising a range of weighted responses, that are electronically distributed to one or more predetermined reviewers such as, but not limited to, policy makers or enforcers. Responses to the questionnaire are aggregated, statistically analyzed and scored to derive quantitative values that are then graphically plotted as one or more coordinates in a Cartesian format. The resulting graphical depiction of the policy's guidance parameters is then presented such that it facilitates a policy viewer's comprehension of the possible implications of noncompliance.
