This process group covers the organisation's legal, ethical and governance obligations and the machinery for meeting them. It includes setting ethics policies and corporate governance policies, running preventive law programmes that head off problems before they arise, and operating a compliance programme from initial planning through to execution. It extends to the management of external lawyers, covering the assessment of the problem, the decision to retain counsel, agreement of strategy and budget, receipt and review of the work product, payment for services, and tracking of legal activity and performance. It takes in the protection of intellectual property, from copyrights, patents and trademarks through to keeping rights and restrictions current, administering licensing terms and handling options. Dispute and litigation resolution, the provision of legal advice and counsel, and the negotiation and documentation of agreements and contracts also sit here.
The graph holds this control, the 0 it maps to, and the evidence behind each claim, over MCP and REST.
