I have experience with reviewing business cases. The person who wrote the document lead the team through sections. Someone was assigned as the script and took notes on a laptop connected to a projector so that everyone could see and tell if something important was missing. It also helped not to come back to things that were already written.
Hope this help

Subject: Reviewiing Process with 12 Engineers at Once
Hi all!
In aprox. 1 hr, I am meeting with 12 engineers in one room to review one
document (34 page Engineering Spec.). They'll be depending upon me to pick a
process for reviewing.
Do you have a preference for reviewing documents in this type of setting
(i.e.,all together in one room)?
1. Review all together while I hand write my notes, then take their redlines
after the meeting and incorporate all together?
2. Input all changes on a laptop while they talk? (I like this idea, but
this could be timeconsuming - we only have 1 1/2 hour time slot)
3. Other?
HELP! It could be informal, but in my experience, I've usually received
redlines in person or e-copies one at a time - not 12 at a time!
Thanks so much for any feedback. Happy Friday to everyone!
