Work, and Work Plan <https://newsalerts.icann.org/HC002020NgJ8mE00P1R00Yd>*

31 March 2020

LOS ANGELES – 31 March 2020 – Today, the IANA Naming Function Review Team
(IFRT) has announced that it has completed the Rules of Engagement
<https://newsalerts.icann.org/f00md0P08Z001R22CNEKg00>, Scope of Work
<https://newsalerts.icann.org/O0n0g02E0200NCP00M0d18R>, and Work Plan
<https://newsalerts.icann.org/DC1000N0ER800n01PN2g0d2> for the IANA Naming
Function Review <https://newsalerts.icann.org/I0102C80P0gONd220n0RE00>
(IFR).

The IFR is one of the new accountability mechanisms created as part of the
IANA stewardship transition to ensure that ICANN via its affiliate Public
Technical Identifiers (PTI) meets the needs and expectations of its naming
customers.

The IFRT will conduct the review in accordance with the scope
specified in Article
18 <https://newsalerts.icann.org/NR003C2d0001gnE0PN0082P> of the ICANN
Bylaws, which centers around a review and evaluation of PTI's performance
of the IANA naming function against the contractual requirements in the IANA
Naming Function Contract
<https://newsalerts.icann.org/kC0QP0N00ng02Rd2810400E> and the IANA Naming
Function SOW <https://newsalerts.icann.org/WC01RNR0P052Edg00208n00>.
What are the next steps for the review team?

The review team has determined an initial methodology for conducting
detailed fact-finding. An outreach plan to get input from the direct
customers of the IANA Naming Function Process, as well as the broader ICANN
community, is under development.
