The APS Reform Office spoke to people in July and August 2023 to test the draft Charter. Internally, the APS Reform Office sought feedback from over 25 agencies. Externally, the Reform Office held six webinars with attendees from industry groups, universities, businesses and the public, as well as additional one on one discussions.

A public survey was also released for two weeks, where 402 people gave their opinions.
