The TI&M Subcommittee utilizes their sitting members and a list of other volunteer subject matter experts (SMEs) to review and update content within BICSI’s manuals. As manual development is periodic, the TI&M Subcommittee can activate these volunteer SMEs, who then commence manual revisions in a short period of time.
