# Common Assumptions

As different countries have different social protection systems at different stages of development, it is important to be aware of the assumptions that have been made.

Structurally, a distinction has been made between [#common-assumptions](#common-assumptions "mention") and [#sp-mis-specific-assumptions](#sp-mis-specific-assumptions "mention").

### Common Assumptions

<table><thead><tr><th width="206">Assumption Label</th><th>Assumption Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>ASM.COM.01</strong> </td><td>All described systems are fully functional and operational within the specified context.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>ASM.COM.02</strong> </td><td>A <a data-mention href="/pages/ommYXD1JUvuE5NxMENyV#unique-id-number-uin">/pages/ommYXD1JUvuE5NxMENyV#unique-id-number-uin</a>system is in place and established for all respective systems.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>ASM.COM.03</strong></td><td>All systems maintain data quality through robust data validation and verification mechanisms, including data cleansing, error detection and correction, and consistent data entry and storage practices.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>ASM.COM.04</strong></td><td>The legal requirements are established to enable the sharing of data between the different systems involved.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>ASM.COM.05</strong></td><td>Adequate data security measures are in place to safeguard the privacy and confidentiality of individual records shared between the systems.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>ASM.COM.06</strong> </td><td>Data-sharing protocols and mechanisms are established between all considered systems to facilitate a seamless exchange of information.</td></tr></tbody></table>

### SP-MIS-specific Assumptions
