An '''Operational Design Assessment''' ('''ODA''') is the final work product of an [[ICANN Organization]] [[Operational Design Phase]] (ODP). The [[ICANN Board]] uses an ODA to determine whether to adopt and how to implement [[Consensus Policy|consensus policy recommendations]]. The first-ever ODA was published on January 25, 2022, concerning the development of a System for Standardized Access/Disclosure ([[SSAD]]) of [[gTLD]] registration data based on the [[GNSO Council]]'s [[Expedited Policy Development Process on the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data#Phases|EPDP Phase 2a recommendations]].<ref>[https://www.icann.org/en/announcements/details/icann-delivers-operational-design-assessment-of-ssad-recommendations-25-1-2022-en ICANN Delivers ODA of SSAD Recommendations, ICANN Announcements]</ref> ODAs serve as input to the Board's deliberations concerning recommendations, particularly over whether its adoption of a recommendation is in the best interest of the [[ICANN Community]] and [[ICANN Organization]]. ODAs are also an input to the design, building, and implementation of the recommendations if adopted the final SSAD.
