RCC workplans and improved standards alignment

Under the previous RCC workplans, alignment was improved for a number of vehicle safety standards (e.g. CMVSS 114) and some new harmonized standards were introduced (e.g. CMVSS 214 and 226), resulting in cost savings or costs avoidance versus those that would be imposed by unique requirements such as increased vehicle development and design costs, diversion of limited engineering resources, increased manufacturing costs due to additional hardware and tooling requirements, reductions in plant capacity utilization, unique certification, and potentially reduce model selection, as well as administrative burden associated with tracking regulator differences.
