LOS ANGELES - Over the course of recent Specific Review cycles, the ICANN community, Board, and organization (org) identified areas that posed challenges to the ability of the reviews to effectively fulfill their purpose. To address these areas, ICANN org developed a series of process improvements and integrated them into an updated Draft Operating Standards for Specific Reviews. According to the Organization, updates to the Draft Operating Standards are focused on improving review scope setting and planning, increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of review work, and incorporating best project management practices into the Specific Reviews process.

ICANN org is seeking input on proposed updates to six sections of the Operating Standards for Specific Reviews. This proceeding will be open for 49 days. For more information, and to participate in this proceeding, please visit this webpage.
