The ANS Standards Committee uses "ANS Collaborate" as an online collaboration tool. Each standards working group, subcommittee, consensus committee, special committee, and the Standards Board has its own password-protected site for document storage, messaging and notifications, balloting, and comment management to promote a more organized, efficient development of standards. Individuals with questions about ANS Collaborate for standards work may contact standards@ans.org.
Standards Committee members that have an established Collaborate account may access the site.
