Most organizations are held to more than one compliance framework, and those frameworks overlap heavily — the same control often appears, in slightly different words, in several standards. **PolicyMerge** combines your selected frameworks and shows where their controls overlap, so that meeting the strictest requirement satisfies the others and you assess once instead of repeatedly. You'll find it in the dashboard under **PolicyMerge** (`/compliance/merge`). ## What the overlap view shows When you select two or more frameworks, PolicyMerge shows the merged set of controls and highlights where controls from different frameworks address the same requirement. Where requirements differ in strictness, meeting the strictest one covers the others. The practical result: you maintain one set of evidence and one set of checks, and PolicyMerge maps that work back to each framework you need to report against. ## The savings calculator The PolicyMerge area includes a **savings calculator** that estimates the effort you avoid by assessing overlapping controls once instead of once per framework. You can adjust its assumptions — hours per control assessment and a consultant hourly rate — and it shows the hours and cost saved by deduplicating overlapping controls. The figures are an adjustable estimate to help you reason about effort, not a customer-specific guarantee. See [PolicyMerge savings](/methodology/policymerge) for how the calculator works. ## Next steps Framework coverage and evidence. How the savings calculator works.
