    3. Preparation : In this phase, reviewers review the document individually using the related documents, procedures, rules and checklists provided.

      - 3. Decision phase : At the end of the meeting, a decision on the document under review has to be made by the participants.

    5. Rework : In this phase, if the number of defects found per page exceeds the certain level, then the document has to be reworked.

    6. Follow-up : In this phase, a moderator checks to make sure that the author has taken action on all known defects.
