Compliance Burden with severity of compliance and safety impact of 3.5 score: a worked example

Suppose severity of compliance and safety impact falls to 3.5 score. This page works the full calculation at that level so you can see exactly which result moves and by how much. Rank compliance burden for graphite and battery-material processing using severity, occurrence, and detection scores for regulatory, customer, EHS, traceability, or documentation requirements.

The inputs for this scenario

  • Severity of compliance/safety impact: 3.5 score (the input this scenario stresses; the baseline uses 7)
  • Likelihood the compliance gap occurs: 4 score (held at the documented default)
  • Difficulty of detecting the gap before it ships: 5 score (held at the documented default)

Working through the calculation

  • The calculation starts from the formula this tool documents: Compliance burden risk score = compliance impact severity score × compliance occurrence score × compliance control detection score.
  • Compliance burden risk score works out to 4.05 score at these inputs, and this is the headline figure for the scenario.
  • Compliance impact severity score works out to 3.5 score at these inputs.
  • Compliance occurrence score works out to 4 score at these inputs.
  • Compliance control detection score works out to 5 score at these inputs.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where severity of compliance and safety impact sits at 7 score and the headline result is 5.45 score, this scenario comes in 25.69% below the baseline at 4.05 score.
  • Multiplies severity, occurrence, and detection scores into a single compliance risk-priority number for ranking battery-material hazards. When the numbers land here, the stressed input is the lever to work; the walkthrough above shows exactly how much each output recovers as it climbs back toward the baseline.

Results at a glance

  • Compliance burden risk score: 4.05 score (headline result)
  • Compliance impact severity score: 3.5 score
  • Compliance occurrence score: 4 score
  • Compliance control detection score: 5 score
