The Company Review process is the formal process by which The Open Group measures consensus around a document in order for it to become a standard of The Open Group. See Section 3.2.2 of the Standards Process. Reviewers are invited to review and submit proposed changes ("Change Requests") that would make the document acceptable to become a standard. A formal ballot then decides which changes are accepted.

The stages of a Company Review are as follows:

10.0 Company Review Announced       
20.0 In the Company Review Period       
30.0 At the Issue Resolution Stage       
35.0 Balloting Period       
38.0 Further Issue Resolution       
39.0 Resolutions (being) Applied by the Editors       
40.0 Sanity Review Period       
48.0 Submitted to Governing Board       
49.0 Approved by Governing Board       
50.0 Submitted for Executive Approval       
59.90 Approved Publication Pending
