  2. ISO/CS update by Alain Samne Technical Group ManagerEngineering, Machinery and EnergyTPM for ISO/TC 67 Buzios (BR), 2006-05-10/11

  3. Topics covered: • ISO Central Secretariat • Introduction • Mission, roles, developments and regional partners • Standards development time-frames • ISO deliverables • ISO IT-tools • Global Directory version 2 – GD 2 • Electronic Balloting version 3 – EB 3 • Submission Interface version 1 – SI 1

  4. The ISO system At 15 February 2006 156 national members • IT tools • Standards development procedures • Consensus building • Dissemination 177 active TCs 3000 technical bodies 50 000 experts Central Secretariatin Geneva 150 staff

  5. ISO Key mission statement To be the leading value adding platform and partner for the production of global and market relevant International Standards covering products, services, good conformity assessment, management and organizational practices

  6. Multiple roles An individual may wear different hats In different groups. For example as a head of delegation can also be a project leader and/or a working group convenor and/or an expert However, due to a need for neutrality, a chairman cannot also be a representative for a national delegation in the same committee for which they are chairman

  9. Regional standards bodies

  10. Regional standards bodies • ACCSQ (ASEAN Consultative Committee for Standards and Quality) • AIDMO (Arab Industrial Development and Mining Organization) • ARSO (African Regional Organization for Standardization) • CEN (European Committee for Standardization) • COPANT (Pan-American Standards Commission) • EASC (Euro-Asian Council for Standardization, Metrology and Certification) • PASC (Pacific Area Standards Congress)

  11. Standards in the real world – Examples For everyone In the Oil and Gas sector • ISO/CS’s monthly information magazine • An excellent resource for business, industry, consumer and government • Facilitates communication in all spheres

  12. Global relevance of ISO Standards

  13. World Trade Report 2005 Six essential elements for International Standards defined in 2nd Triennial Review of TBT Agreement, 2000 (Annex 4): Transparency – easily accessible information Openness – non-discriminatory Impartiality and consensus – fair practices Effectiveness and relevance – market demand Coherence – no overlap Development dimension – technical assistance to participate = the ISO system is fully compliant Exploring the links between trade, standards and the WTO

  14. Non-tariff barriers affecting market access

  15. “Effective and relevant” Standards “Effective and relevant” Standards ISOGlobalRelevance WTO“Effectiveness and relevance” ISO DefinitionGlobal Relevance is the required characteristic of an International Standard that it can be used/implemented as broadly as possible by affected industries and other stakeholders in markets around the world =

  16. Prescriptive vs. Performance ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, Clause 4.2 Performance approach “Whenever possible, requirements shall be expressed in terms of performance rather than design or descriptive characteristics. This approach leaves maximum freedom to technical development.” Annex 3 of the WTO/TBT Agreement “Wherever appropriate, the standardizing body shall specify standards based on product requirements in terms of performance rather than design or descriptive characteristics.”

  17. ISO TMB Guidelines on global relevance International Standard shall to the extent possible represent a unique international solution, but where justified may present options to accommodate differences The commitment to participate in the development of and the feasibility of preparing International Standards shall be demonstrated at the outset of a standards development project. Preference shall be given to preparing performance rather than prescriptive standards. An IS may pass through an evolutionary process, with the ultimate objective being to publish, at a later point, an International Standard that presents one unique international solution in all of its provisions. BASE DELIVERABLES

  18. ISO TMB Guidelines on global relevance Essential differences consistent with Annex 3 to the WTO Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade can be included in International Standards, but specific rules shall be applied if a committee wishes to introduce such differences and special authorization needs to be given by the TMB in instances not covered by these rules. Committees can only ensure the global relevance of the International Standards they produce if they are aware of all the factors that may affect a particular standard's global relevance. BASE DELIVERABLES

  19. Standards’ development timeframe

  20. Timeframes – Selection criteria • Market relevanceExpectations from industry and other stakeholders must be taken into account. • PriorityThere should be a clear understanding at what point in time the International Standard will be needed by the market. • ResourcesThe identification of a project champion and a clear commitment from stakeholders that they are prepared to allocate the resources for meeting the selected timeframe.

  21. Timeframes – NWIP Considerations • Prior to accepting to circulate NWIPs, keeping in mind ISO’s policy of consensus building voluntary Standards, the committee must: • Justify market relevance, priority, and required resources; • Identify an available champion (project leader); • Propose a suitable development Track on the NWIP form; • Confirm the selected Track and assign corresponding target dates on the AWI form.

  22. Timeframes – Progression • Committee secretariat to manage target stage-date flexibility • Possibility to register NWIs or downgrade active projects as PWIs

  23. DIS/FDIS process flow in STAND Submission of DIS/FDIS files on ISOTC server by TC/SC 2 Evaluation Technical Editorial Drawings Procedural Committee time 1 DIS FDIS Production Editorial Drawings Composition Proofreading 3 ISO/CS time Ballot Launch Ballot results Finalization Publication 4 5

  25. ISO deliverables

  26. ISO deliverables • International Standard (IS) • Technical Specification (TS) • Technical Report (TR) • Guides policy committees only • Publicly Available Specification (PAS) • International Workshop Agreement (IWA)

  27. Base (useful) deliverable • International Standard (IS) • [normative] • 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 [and] that is adopted by an international standardizing/standards organization and made available to the public • Source: ISO/IEC Guide 2:1996 (combination of definitions 3.2 & 3.2.1.1)

  28. Base (useful) deliverable • Technical Specification (TS)(was Technical Report types 1 & 2) • [normative] • document addressing work • still under technical development, or • where for any other reason there is the future, but not immediate, possibility of agreement on an International Standard

  29. Base (useful) deliverable BASE (USEFUL) DELIVERABLE • Technical Specification (TS)(fall-back situation) • [normative] • document originally intended to be an International Standard, but • where the required support cannot be obtained for approval as an International Standard; or • for which there is doubt on whether consensus has been achieved • Published in order to make available its content for use by interested parties

  30. Base (useful) deliverable BASE DELIVERABLES • Technical Report (TR) • [informative] • document containing information of a different kind from that normally published in a normative document • NOTE     Such data may include, for example, data obtained from a survey carried out among the national bodies, data on work in other international organizations or data on the “state of the art” in relation to standards of national bodies on a particular subject

  31. (quicker) Deliverables Publicly Available Specification (PAS) [normative] A document representing the consensus within a working group NOTE Competing PAS offering different technical solutions are possible provided that they do not conflict with existing International Standards. (A TC/SC may decide to revise an ISO standard to allow conflicting PAS.) Example: ISO/PAS 18873 International protocol for doping control (QUICKER) DELIVERABLES

  32. (quicker) Deliverables International Workshop Agreement (IWA) [normative] A document which does not rely on the customary technical committee structures. Essentially this will be through an open workshop mechanism whereby market players will be able to negotiate in a workshop setting the contents of particular normative documents (QUICKER) DELIVERABLES

  33. Special deliverable Guide [informative] document giving orientation, advice or recommendations on non-normative matters relating to international standardization NOTE 1Guides may address issues of interest to all users of International Standards NOTE 2Guides are not prepared by technical committees or subcommittees, but by policy committees or directly or indirectly by the TMB

  34. Comparison of procedures for different ISO deliverables

  35. Standards development processes and deliverables summary

  36. Adoption of ISO Standards

  37. New edition of Guide 21 (2005) • A new version of ISO/IEC Guide 21 has been revised in 2005. The new version consists of two parts: • ISO/IEC Guide 21-1:2004Regional or national adoption of International Standards and other International Deliverables – Part 1: Adoption of International Standards • ISO/IEC Guide 21-2:2004Regional or national adoption of International Standards and other International Deliverables – Part 2: Adoption of International Deliverables other than International Standards • Part 2 addresses specially the regional or national adoption of International Deliverables other than Standards such as Technical Specifications (TS), Publicly Available Specifications (PAS), Guides, Technical Reports (TR), International/Technical Workshop Agreements (ITA/IWA) and Technology Trend Assessments (TTA).

  38. ISO/IEC Guide 21-1Main Content • ISO/IEC Guide 21-1 • provides methods for adoption of International Standards as regional or national standards, • defines a system for indicating the degree of correspondence between International Standards and regional or national standards so as to promote coherence in the way regional or national standards bodies adopt International Standards and indicate the degree of correspondence with International Standard • and contributes thereby to achieving greater uniformity in the indication of both correspondence and deviations among standards of different countries will aid communication, avoid confusion and facilitate trade.

  39. ISO/IEC Guide 21-1Main applications • ISO/IEC Guide 21-1 • applies directly to the adoption of international standards or deliverables, other than International Standards which have been developed by ISO and IEC, as regional or national standards. • is also used to in the adoption of standards other than International Standards (e.g. national standards of one country) as national standards of (another) country

  40. ISO/IEC Guide 21-1What is an adoption? • The adoption of an International Standard is defined as:“The publication of a regional or national normative document based on a relevant International Standard, or endorsement of the International Standard as having the same status as a national normative document, with any deviations from the International Standard identified.”  

  41. Three degrees of correspondence between standards in an adoption

  42. Methods of adoption • Endorsement method (via an endorsement notice) • Republication, which includes: • Reprinting • Translation (with or without reprint of the original) • Redrafting • Independent of which method of republication is chosen, a regional or national identifier of the organization adopting the International Standard shall appear on the cover page and all other pages of the regional or national standard.

  43. Methods of adoptionChoices between different adoption methods • If no editorial changes or technical deviations are made, any method of adoption above is suitable, although reprinting of the full text is the method recommended for those countries whose language is one of the official ISO/IEC languages. Where a translation is involved, the country should consider binding the original text with the translation. • If editorial changes or technical deviations are inevitable, it is recommended that the reprint method or the translation method with the incorporation of deviations within the text or in an annex be used. • The redrafting of standards is not recommended.

  44. Methods of adoption – Coversheet method • Special note concerning the Cover sheet method: • The Cover sheet method, whereby a cover sheet with regional or national bibliographical data (such as the regional or national reference number, title, publication date, degree of adoption etc.) is added to an original copy of the International Standard, is no longer permitted.

  45. Numbering of standards • Numbering of identical adoptions: “It should be evident to the reader immediately, and not only after examination of the content, when regional or national standards are identical to the International Standards” • Two numbering options • Single numbering • Dual numbering

  46. Numbering of standardsSingle numbering • Single numbering • Identical adoption of IEC 61642:1998becomes XYZ/IEC 61642:1998 • with the acronym (represented here as “XYZ” for the regional or national standard) being added in front of the original reference number of the IS

  47. Numbering of standardsDual numbering • Dual numbering (1or 2 line) • Identical adoption of ISO 13616:1996becomes XYZ 87878:1998 / ISO 13616:1996 • The adopted standard is composed of two individual numbers: • A leading national standards number, followed by • the original number of the International Standard • 2-line Dual numbers are written as:XYZ 87878:1998ISO 13616:1996

  48. Numbering of standards Note: • Modified adoptions only carry a national number and do not include the reference number of the adopted International Standard.

  49. Dating of standards • There are two options for the dating of regional or national standards which are based on adoptions: • Dating based on the year of publication of the regional or national standard: Example: XYZ IEC 61642:1998 (for an identical adoption of IEC 61642:1996) • Dating based on the year of publication of the International Standard: Example: XYZ IEC 61642:1996 (for an identical adoption of IEC 61642:1996) In Dual numbering each of the individual numbers may contain a separate publication year. Example: XYZ 87878:1998 ISO 13616:1996

  50. Adoption of IS versus other deliverables • International Standards shall only be adopted as regional or national standards and not as any another deliverable type. • International Deliverables other than International Standards (TS, PAS, Guides, TRs etc.) may be adopted either through an identical regional or national deliverable or through another type of deliverable.
