SAGD application are being approved quicker. The average approval time is still the same. But the maximum time for approval has dropped significantly this year.

Maximum approval time indicates the worst case approval and always should be considered in your project schedule.

Maximum approval time is also a measure of your application quality. If your application is approved nearer the max approval time than near the average, your application was written poorly. We found this information using AppIntel.
