Proceduremæssige

Proceduremæssige is a Danish adjective meaning relating to procedures or the manner in which something is carried out. The term is formed from the noun procedure and the suffix -mæssig, with the form proceduremæssige used when describing a plural noun or when the adjective precedes a plural noun.

In usage, proceduremæssige describes aspects of processes, steps, formalities, or administrative requirements rather than the substantive content of an action. It is common in legal, administrative, and technical texts to distinguish how something is done from what is being done. The expression can modify nouns such as krav (requirements), skridt (steps), forløb (process), or forhold (matters).

Examples include proceduremæssige krav til dokumentation i en ansøgning (procedural requirements for documentation in an application) and proceduremæssige skridt i en undersøgelse (procedural steps in an investigation). The term helps emphasize compliance with established procedures, formalities, and workflow rules.

Etymology traces the word to the French procédure, carried into Danish as procedure, with the adjectival suffix -mæssig indicating a relation to the noun. The form follows standard Danish adjective inflection rules, adapting to number and definiteness as needed in sentences.

Overall, proceduremæssige is a specialized but widely used label in Danish to categorize aspects of work, governance, and study that pertain to how processes are conducted.
