The remaining publications support understanding, self-evaluation, and implementation. They do not add to, narrow, or modify the requirements of the Standard.
Recommended Reading Order

6. Frequently Asked Questions
Provisional Field-Test Edition
The National Standard is currently published as a Provisional Field-Test Edition and is available for voluntary implementation while FRBH gathers field experience, stakeholder input, and public comment to inform future revisions and the planned consensus process. This stage allows the Standard to be used and evaluated in practice while its development continues. Comments are welcome from any organization or interested party, whether or not they intend to adopt the Standard.
Implementation Support
General implementation support is available at no charge through the National Technical Assistance Center (NTAC), on the same terms to every organization.

It is available for voluntary implementation, field learning, and public comment while FRBH continues field validation and standards development toward an open multi-stakeholder consensus process. Requirements may be revised before publication of the first Consensus Edition, and supporting publications will be updated as appropriate to remain aligned with the Standard.
