Most of the work is carried out independently by the authors. In addition, authors should plan to participate in one to three virtual meetings throughout the development process to discuss the scope of the project, review the evidence, and reach a consensus on the recommendations.

Authors must remain engaged throughout the project, be responsive to communications and requests, and meet established deadlines.
