What are Standards?
 What is a Standard
 Documented agreements containing technical specifications or other
precise criteria to be used consistently as rules, guidelines, or
definitions of characteristics, to ensure that materials, products,
processes and services are fit for their purpose.
 Example
 The format of the credit cards, phone cards, and "smart" cards that
have become commonplace is derived from an ISO International
Standard. Adhering to the standard, which defines such features as
an optimal thickness (0.76 mm), means that the cards can be used
worldwide.
 International Standards thus contribute to making life simpler, and to
increasing the reliability and effectiveness of the goods and services we
use.
“The nice thing about standards is that you have so many to choose from.“

What is ISO?
 ISO – International Organization for Standardization (so why isn’t it
IOS?)
 ISO is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies from more
than 140 countries, one from each country.
 ISO is a non-governmental organization established in 1947. The
mission of ISO is to promote the development of standardization and
related activities in the world with a view to facilitating the international
exchange of goods and services, and to developing cooperation in the
spheres of intellectual, scientific, technological and economic activity.
Every working day of the year, an average of eight
technical meetings take place somewhere in the world

ISO Technical Committees
 ISO Technical Committees
 Each Technical Committee (TC) has a number and can contain
subcommittees (SC) and working groups (WG).
 The ISO technical/project committees are assigned numbers in order of
their establishment, from TC 1 (1947) to PC 278 (2013)
 There are two joint technical committees
 JTC1: Information technology (1987) – ISO/IEC
 JTC2: Energy efficiency and renewable energy sources - Common
terminology (2009)

What is the IEC?




The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is an organization of 50
countries, created "to promote international cooperation on all questions of
standardization and related matters, such as the verification of conformity to
standards, in the fields of electricity, electronics and related technologies and
thus promote international understanding." IEC does this by issuing
publications, including international standards.
IEC's scope is specifically electrotechnology (the electrical and electronic
engineering fields). ISO standardizes all the other types of technology
If the relative contribution of electrical and non-electrical technologies is not
immediately evident, jurisdiction is settled by mutual agreement
For example, on information technology standards, such as computer
communications, ISO and IEC have formed a Joint Technical Committee
Number One, JTC1. Other areas of cooperation include the environment, safety
and electromagnetic radiation
ISO and IEC together form a system for international
standardization as a whole

Space Coast Chapter of INCOSE – International Council on Systems Engineering
What is ANSI?
 ANSI – American National Standards Institute (1918)
 A private, non-profit organization that administers and coordinates the
U.S. voluntary standardization and conformity assessment system.
 The only accreditor of U.S. voluntary consensus standards developing
organizations
 The Institute's mission is to enhance both the global competitiveness of
U.S. business and the U.S. quality of life by promoting and facilitating
voluntary consensus standards and conformity assessment systems,
and safeguarding their integrity.
 ANSI is the official U.S. representative to the International Accreditation
Forum (IAF), the International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
and, via the U.S. National Committee, the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC). ANSI is also the U.S. member of the Pacific Area
Standards Congress (PASC) and the Pan American Standards
Commission (COPANT).
ANSI is the official U.S. representative to ISO

Space Coast Chapter of INCOSE – International Council on Systems Engineering
What is the USNC?





US National Committee
Only countries, not standards bodies, can be members of IEC and ISO.
Therefore, standards bodies need to work through a member country
organization when proposing international standards work or making
submissions to IEC or ISO technical committees.
ANSI, the American National Standards Institute, is the only dues paying U.S.
member organization to ISO (ANSI is a founding member of ISO).
The U.S. member to the IEC is the United States National Committee to the IEC
(USNC). The ANSI interface with the IEC is through the USNC. In fact, the
USNC is located at ANSI in New York.
The USNC insists that IEC Standards are based on the principles of the World
Trade Organization / Technical Barriers to Trade (WTO/TBT) agreement. The
USNC also insists that the IEC adopts the concepts of valid justification, global
relevance, consensus, openness, balance, impartiality, transparency, due
process (including prompt appeal), flexibility, coherence and timeliness among
IEC member countries in the work of the IEC..
ANSI interfaces with the IEC is through the USNC

What is the EIA?





EIA was a national trade organization that includes the full spectrum of U.S.
manufacturers, representing more than 80% of the $550 billion electronics industry
The EIA organization ceased operations in February 2011. It used to be the Electronic
Industries Alliance and before that (1997) the Electronic Industries Association
EIA assigned Electronic Components Association (ECA) maintenance of all existing
interconnect, passive and electro-mechanical (IP&E) and inter-department EIA standards.
EIA also granted ECA the rights to develop new IP&E electronic component standards
under the ANSI-designation of EIA standards. All other electronic components standards
will be managed by their respective sectors.
ECA joined the Electronic Components Industry Association (ECIA) with National
Electronic Distributors Association (NEDA). However, the EIA standards brand will
continue for IP&E standards within ECIA.
 CEA – The Consumer Electronics Association
 GEIA – The Government Electronics and Information Technology Association
(became TechAmerica in 2009)
 JEDEC – The JEDEC Solid State Technology Association
 TIA – The Telecommunications Industry Association
www.eciaonline.org/
Space Coast Chapter of INCOSE – International Council on Systems Engineering
What is the EIA?


ECA holds accreditation rights through ANSI, the American National Standards
Institute, under the mark "EIA". Any standards committee choosing to develop
an American National Standard may process the work through the ECA
accreditation.
The ECA Standards and Technology Department oversees the ECA's presence
in the global standards-setting arena by managing a number of Technical
Committee and Subcommittee Secretariats and US Technical Advisory Groups
(TAGs) sponsored by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and
the Joint Technical Committee on Information Technology (JTC1) that is a
combined effort of the IEC and the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO).

What is the IEEE?



Professional organization focused on science and education directed toward the
advancement of the theory and practice of Electrical, Electronics,
Communications and Computer Engineering, as well as Computer Science
IEEE produces 30% of the world's literature in the electrical and electronics
engineering and computer science fields
IEEE Standards Association: With an active portfolio of nearly 1,300
standards and projects under development, IEEE is a leading developer of
industry standards in a broad range of technologies.
 Lists of terms, definitions, or symbols, applicable to any field of science or
technology within the scope of IEEE;
 Expositions of scientific methods of measurement or tests of the parameters
or performance of any device, apparatus, system, or phenomenon
associated with the art, science, or technology of any field within the scope
of IEEE;
 Characteristics, performance, and safety requirements associated with
devices, equipment, and systems with engineering installations; and/or
 Recommendations reflecting current state-of-the-art in the application of
engineering principles to any field of technology within the scope of IEEE.

Space Coast Chapter of INCOSE – International Council on Systems Engineering
IEEE Standards Process

IEEE standards follow a well-defined path from concept to completion, guided
by a set of five basic principles: due process, openness, consensus, balance
and right of appeal. These imperatives ensure fairness and good standards
practice during the development cycle, and help validate approved standards
U.S. Department of Justice has held that standards organizations
are responsible for the actions of their standards developers
http://standards.ieee.org/develop/process.html
Space Coast Chapter of INCOSE – International Council on Systems Engineering
How is INCOSE Involved?



INCOSE has a Technical Board that is the strategic planning and management body for
the technical community. Reporting to this Board are a number of Technical Committees,
one of which is the Standards Technical Committee (STC). The goal of this Committee is
to encourage, guide, and assess INCOSE’s participation in standards activities. This
includes coordination of INCOSE’s review of standards and dissemination of information
on standards and standardization activities.
The STC and Technical Board maintain liaison with a number of standards organizations
 GEIA SSTC G-47 - Government Electronics & Information Technology Association,
Systems, Standards & Technology Council, Systems Engineering Committee.
 ISO JTC1/SC7 - International Organization for Standardization, Joint Technical
Committee, Subcommittee for Software and System Engineering
In addition, the STC maintains liaison with the Object Management Group (OMG), the
National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA), the Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA),
the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and subject matter experts
from around the world. Some of the international standards that STC is involved with are:
ISO 15288 (System Life Cycle Processes), ISO 15504 (Systems Engineering Capability
Model), and ISO 10303-AP233 (STEP, Systems Engineering Data Exchange)

ISO 9001:2008 - Quality Management Systems




The ISO 9000 family of standards (developed in 1987) is related to quality management systems and
designed to help organizations ensure that they meet the needs of customers and other stakeholders
while meeting statutory and regulatory requirements related to the product.
Sections
 Section 1: Scope
 Section 2: Normative Reference
 Section 3: Terms and definitions (specific to ISO 9001, not specified in ISO 9000)
 Section 4: Quality Management System
 Section 5: Management Responsibility
 Section 6: Resource Management
 Section 7: Product Realization
 Section 8: Measurement, analysis and improvement
The standard specifies that the organization shall issue and maintain the following six documented
procedures:
 Control of Documents (4.2.3)
 Control of Records (4.2.4)
 Internal Audits (8.2.2)
 Control of Nonconforming Product / Service (8.3)
 Corrective Action (8.5.2)
 Preventive Action (8.5.3)
In addition to these procedures, ISO 9001:2008 requires the organization to document any other
procedures required for its effective operation. The standard also requires the organization to issue and
communicate a documented quality policy, a Quality Manual (which may or may not include the
documented procedures) and numerous records, as specified throughout the standard.

AS 9100 - Quality Management Systems
for the Aerospace Industry





AS9100C (2009)
AS9100 is a widely adopted and standardized quality management system for
the aerospace industry. It was released in October, 1999, by the Society of
Automotive Engineers and the European Association of Aerospace Industries.
AS9100 fully incorporates the entirety of the current version of ISO 9000, while
adding additional requirements relating to quality and safety.
Major aerospace manufacturers and suppliers worldwide require compliance
and/or registration to AS9100 as a condition of doing business with them
This standard is designed to be used by firms in the aviation, space, and
defense industries and can be applied throughout the supply chain. It is
intended for use by organizations that design, develop, and produce aviation,
space, and defense products. It is also intended for use by organizations that
provide post-delivery support. This includes those that provide maintenance,
materials, or spare parts for their own products

•
Defense Standardization Council (DSC) recognized that
enterprise-wide approaches were needed for certain
systems engineering disciplines
DSC directed the Defense Standardization Program Office
(DSPO) to form working groups to assess existing systems
engineering technical documentation, identify requirements
gaps, and make recommendations
Working groups focused on standards for specific areas:

 NDIA and other partners are working
with DoD (DASD(SE)) to converge
with industry standards updates
 Likely to be levied in RFPs in the
not too distant future
 Likely candidates for consideration
include:
 ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288
 ISO/IEC/IEEE 12207
 EIA 632
 Some of these standards are
currently undergoing revision, and
may harmonize into compatible and
consistent standards
