Overview of the SSRB

What is the SSRB?
The Spreadsheet Standards Review Board (“SSRB”) is the body that develops and maintains the Best Practice Spreadsheet Modelling Standards. The Best Practice Spreadsheet Modelling Standards are the highest professional spreadsheet modelling standards that are publicly available in the world.

The SSRB was established by BPM Analytical Empowerment to bring together the best spreadsheet modelling skills from around the world in order to develop and gain general acceptance for comprehensive and universally applicable Best Practice Spreadsheet Modelling Standards.

What does the SSRB do?
The SSRB is responsible for:

  • ensuring that the Best Practice Spreadsheet Modelling Standards are the highest professional spreadsheet modelling standards in the world;
  • further developing the Best Practice Spreadsheet Modelling Standards;
  • facilitating and managing participation in the Best Practice Spreadsheet Modelling Standards via written proposals to the SSRB;
  • evaluating proposals to add, delete or modify Standards or Conventions; and
  • promoting the general acceptance and application of the Best Practice Spreadsheet Modelling Standards throughout the spreadsheet modelling community.

The SSRB meets periodically to evaluate and consider proposals to add, delete or modify the Standards that are submitted to the SSRB by any party. The SSRB also invests significant resources into comprehensively analysing every aspect of spreadsheet development, maintenance and usage in order to establish universally applicable Standards and Conventions for spreadsheet modelling activities.

Any party can participate in the Best Practice Spreadsheet Modelling Standards by submitting a written proposal to the SSRB.
