Spreadsheet Standards Review Board

The Spreadsheet Standards Review Board ('SSRB') was established by BPM in June 2004 to be the body responsible for the development and maintenance of the Best Practice Spreadsheet Modelling Standards.

The SSRB has a mandate to facilitate participation in the maintenance and further development of the Standards by a broad cross-section of the business community (e.g. accounting firms, investment banks, commercial banks, advisors, governments, companies, etc) via the assessment of submissions to modify the Standards. The SSRB is seeking to ensure that the Standards are aligned with the interests of spreadsheet model developers and users. Any organisation or individual may lodge a submission to modify the Standards to the SSRB.
