The Targeted Updates project aims to provide policymakers, in particular guideline developers, with bespoke up-to-date information about specific questions addressed in existing Cochrane Reviews, but updated according to their requirements and timelines. The pilot project was conducted jointly by Enhance Reviews, the Cochrane Editorial Unit, Cochrane Innovations, and a Cochrane Review Groups (CRG) Coordinating Editor, and also involved a number of CRGs.

The project team has submitted a pilot report for consideration by the Steering Group at its meeting in Seoul in October 2016. They have also begun publishing a series of posts on the Cochrane Blog about the project.
