RevCom for Regulations and Rulemaking

Improving the regulatory document review and clearance process

With RevCom, you can count on a successful rulemaking process which holds its management and staff accountable to interim and final deadlines.

Quick and controlled

RevCom supports a quicker review while maintaining tight version controls for all of the documents on the rule-making docket. Different reviewers can examine the proposed rule-making concurrently, rather than sequentially, throughout the rule-making process.

RevCom allows reviewers within different offices and across agency boundaries to work on the same rule-making docket simultaneously and privately, supporting a quicker review while maintaining tight version controls for all of the documents on the docket.

RevCom enables large-scale reviews in which all of the relevant comments, edits, clearances, and approvals are returned quickly and embedded where they belong within individual documents.

Accountable to deadlines

A successful rule-making process holds management and staff accountable to interim and final deadlines.

Substantive vs. Editorial reviews

When forced to use a word processor to review draft notices and regulations, reviewers often spend too much time making unnecessary editorial corrections and not enough time focusing their efforts on substantive legal and policy issues. RevCom makes it easy for reviewers and approvers to ask questions, suggest changes, and point out inconsistencies without having to actually edit or re-write the document.

Although RevCom reviewers work directly online in real-time, their work can be seen only within their own groups or offices until the results of the review are posted. This allows the reviewers to collaborate privately until they are ready to submit their final review package for the rest of the department to see.
