> The National Arbitration Forum <http://www.adrforum.com/> (FORUM) has
> secured the first appointment by ICANN to administer the Uniform Rapid
> Suspension System (URS). FORUM submitted an outstanding proposal
> demonstrating how it would meet all requirements presented in the
> RFI<http://www.icann.org/en/news/rfps/urs-24sep12-en.pdf>[PDF, 112 KB]
> and detailing its implementation approach. The company has a
> proven track record boasting resolution of over 19,000 claims in 12+ years
> of administering UDRP cases. Additionally, FORUM has already developed, and
> is currently operating a TLD-specific rapid relief system.
>
> ICANN would like to thank everyone who responded to the RFI. FORUM will be
> one of multiple providers appointed to administer URS services. The process
> will be similar to that of appointing UDRP providers in which consideration
> is given to achieving competitive provisioning and geographical spread of
> providers.
>
> URS is a rights protection mechanism for new gTLDs that facilitates rapid
> suspension of domain names in clear-cut cases of trademark infringement. It
> is intended to complement the existing Uniform Domain-Name Dispute
> Resolution Policy (UDRP) by offering a lower-cost, faster path to
> resolution.
