HTRI values the contributions of all its volunteer groups. Cooperation among companies, for the general good of all, is one of the primary strengths of a consortium.

Member companies throughout the world share in the costs and benefits of collaboration. To help ensure the industrial relevance of projects and to utilize the collective technical strengths of its global membership, HTRI staff consult with experts in fields related to our mission and work with the following member company groups in planning the technical program:

• Technical Advisory Committee (TAC)
• Technical Committee (TC)
• Communication Committees (CC)
• Task Forces (TF)

These groups represent the member companies who use HTRI technology and software to carry out their engineering responsibilities. Interaction benefits both the member companies and HTRI. Within the structure and spirit of the consortium, member representatives are supported by their companies and do not receive compensation from HTRI.
