A standard is a document, established by a consensus of subject matter experts and approved by a recognized body that provides guidance on the design, use or performance of materials, products, processes, services, systems or persons.
Some details of the common elements of an International Standard and its development can be found in My ISO job. Many national standards follow the same format.
Standards can be developed by national, regional and international standards developing organizations and also by businesses or other organizations for their own internal use. They can also be developed by consortia of businesses to address a specific marketplace need, or by government departments to support regulations. This module is most concerned with standards produced by the international standards organizations, ISO and IEC, and their national members.
The formal definition from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and its sister organization, the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is: a document, established by consensus and approved by a recognized body, that provides, for common and repeated use, rules, guidelines or characteristics for activities or their results, aimed at the achievement of the optimum degree of order in a given context.
Whereas IEC’s scope of work is specifically electrical and electrotechnical standardization, ISO’s work programme encompasses virtually all other areas except telecommunications which is covered by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). However, a joint technical committee of ISO and IEC (JTC1)1 deals with information technology standardization.
