Purpose And Scope

X12PRB - Procedures Review Board
Purpose And Scope


A. To ensure that due process was followed and consensus was reached in all ASC X12 standards, guidelines, and interpretations development and maintenance so that all participants have confidence in the fairness of the results. The PRB will not act on technical matters.

B. The PRB provides the same functionality to the working groups of ASC X12 that the Board of Standards Review provides to the Accredited Standards Committees of ANSI. That is, to establish that substantial agreement (consensus) has been reached by directly and materially affected and interested members of ASC X12 in the development and maintenance of standards and guidelines, to ensure all views and objections are considered, and that a concerted effort is made toward their resolution.

C. The PRB shall base its judgment, as to whether due process was followed, by comparing the actual events to the ASC X12 procedures as documented in the ASC X12 OPM, any applicable standing documents of ASC X12, and any documented interpretation of the OPM, or standing documents of the ASC X12 Steering Committee or any applicable X12 subcommittee. In the absence of applicable documentation the PRB shall use its best judgement as to what is in the best interest of the EDI user community.

D. Specific functions of the PRB include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. Approve new project proposals as official X12 work items. It is the responsibility of the PRB to determine whether the proposal is within the scope of ASC X12 and is consistent with other existing or developing ASC X12 standards and guidelines.

2. Assign or reassign transaction sets and other draft proposed standards, guidelines, and project proposals to X12 subcommittees and task groups for development and maintenance.

3. Provide a forum for the resolution of procedural issues (differences) between subcommittees.
