 Each OGC candidate Standard goes through a series of stages on the way to approval by the TC. One of those stages is the review by the OGC Architecture Board (OAB).
 
 The mission of the OAB is to provide a forum within which Consortium wide standards architecture and life cycle management issues can be discussed and deliberated with the intent of providing guidance and recommendations to the Technical Committee (TC) and the Executive Planning Committee (EPC) on these issues (OGC 06-030r12). 
 
 During the OAB's review of a Standard, it is the responsibility of the SWG to seek approval from the OAB on the granularity, reusability, and interfacing of the building block.
