A set of rules on the structure and detailed design of spreadsheet-based models.
The FAST Standard is designed to provide:
- A clear route to good model design for individual modellers, and
- A common style platform on which modellers and reviewers can rely, when passing models amongst each other.

- Short; and
- Use only a limited set of functions.
