Critical Design Review. In aerospace engineering, it happens when drawings and software are substantially complete, but before starting to cut metal. The goal is to provide some assurance that the design will actually comply with the system requirements.
CDRs are usually presented as a single PowerPoint deck that can run to thousands of slides, with many presenters and dozens of review panel members.
Interesting! I operate fully outside of the realm of aerospace engineering, so this is news to me. I take it this is an opportunity for anyone to speak up if they have any concerns with any aspect of the design before it moves to the production phase?
That’s the one I’m familiar with. But the sides themselves are super useful a few years later when you can’t remember what in the world you were thinking.
I looked it up. Commission on Dietetic Registration. Or possibly Colorado Department of Revenue. Or Chadron Municipal Airport (airport designation CDR) in Chadron, Nebraska.

What is this CDR you speak of? Like blank CDs?

Canada’s Drag Race? Corel DRaw? Climate Data Record? Carbon Dioxide Removal??
Man, Carbon Dioxide Removal for a full week…

Definitely one of those.
Ahhhhh, makes sense. Duh!
