The document describes the six phases of a formal review process: 1. Planning involves assigning a moderator and scheduling the review. 2. Kick-off is an optional meeting to align participants on the document and time commitment. 3. Preparation includes checking documents at a defined rate, usually 5-10 pages per hour. 4. The review meeting logs defects, discusses severity, and decides if exit criteria are met. 5. Rework is done by the author to address defects found before another review. 6. Follow-up ensures all defects were adequately addressed before the document is finalized.
