Location	Current version	Proposed Revision	Justification
CIS	No score after completing assessment	Score after assessment (phase 1 audit)	The scoring is part of recent efforts to redesign the way we do CAVs and CACs (now called audits) to ensure greater compliance with NFIP regulations in participating communities, allows us to track compliance changes over time and do data analytics, as well as making the whole process more transparent, fair, and consistent.
CIS	CAC – CAC name change	Now called Diagnostic Assessment and Full Evaluation	The name change is to describe the new process more accurately.
CIS	CAC Findings going away	Diagnostic Assessment tool with standardized questions and responses will replace the “findings”.	The new Diagnostic Tool assesses the “CAC findings” more thoroughly and consistently.
CIS	CAC Follow Up going away	Diagnostic Assessment (phase 1 audit) will close and Phase 2 Follow Up will be opened and active tracking of follow up actions will be recorded there.	This way of tracking follow up actions is more thorough, organized, and standardized and allows the fairer and more transparent assessment of the communities NFIP program administration.
CIS	CAC Violations going away	Any violations discovered after the phase 1 audit (Diagnostic Assessment) will be tracked in the Phase 2 Follow Up tabs and also in the National Violations Tracker in CIS.	This way will better ensure actions are taken to track and correct violations found in a Diagnostic Assessment (formerly CAC).
