Phase 1 Analysis
Phase 1: Analysis and recommendations
Overview
Phase 1 analyzed 30 identification standards documents to identify systematic issues and develop recommendations for restructuring. Work was conducted November 19, 2025 over approximately 3 hours of active work.

Workflow
- Stage 1 (Initial exploration): Familiarized with MCP server capabilities and document taxonomy
- Stage 2 (Pattern analysis): Analyzed 81 annotation points to identify systematic issues
- Stage 3 (Other materials): Evaluated external materials for integration
- Stage 4 (Thematic synthesis): Identified root cause and synthesized themes
- Stage 5 (AI Guidance): Evaluated against government AI guidance principles (moved)
- Stage 6 (Recommendations): Developed 8 recommendations and structure proposal
- Stage 7 (Validation): Validated structure against AI guidance (moved)
Key outputs
- Root cause identified: Standards structured for conceptual explanation rather than operational implementation
- 8 recommendations developed (3 critical, 3 important, 2 beneficial)
- 9-section consolidated structure proposed
- External materials decisions: Integrate Biometric Privacy Code, reference NCSC, exclude EIVA
