Operating Standards are mandated by the ICANN Bylaws, Article 4, Section 4.6, and are a direct result from WorkSteam1's Recommendation #09 that states:

"To support the common goal of improving the efficiency and effectiveness of reviews, ICANN will publish operational standards to be used as guidance by the community, ICANN staff, and the Board in conducting future reviews. The community will review these operational standards on an ongoing basis to ensure that they continue to meet the community’s needs. 

"These operational standards should include issues such as: composition of Review Teams, Review Team working methods (meeting protocol, document access, role of observers, budgets, decision making methods, etc.), and methods of access to experts. These standards should be developed with the community and should require community input and review to be changed. The standards are expected to reflect levels of detail that are generally not appropriate for governance documents, and should not require a change to the Bylaws to modify."

A letter from the Chair of the ccNSO Council to the Chairman of the ICANN Board highlighted the need to have the scope of the review set before the review team is convened.
