Prior to the release, the Architecture committee held a quality assurance (QA) virtual meeting on Oct.10 to review the changes to the BMS, code list, instance documents and schemas; verify they meet the Architecture guidelines; validate spelling; and ensure all changes to the BMS are in the schema. The committee publishes updated collision industry standards twice a year.
