I feel compelled to point out that the Power Point deck and MOF are both derived from ITIL (http://www.itil.org/itil_e/index_e.html)

If you read the intro to MOF you'll see a "credit" given.

Checklists are after the fact, planning is before.  Logs (audits/reviews/assessments) are "during".  Keep that in mind when you are the one whose tail is on the line to upper management for your IT operations...
