A brief overview of the International Organization for Standardization:

Customer satisfaction, profitability and market leadership are driven in large part by delivering quality products and services to customers. Today, more than ever, there is a worldwide trend towards increasingly stringent customer expectations regarding quality. Accompanying this trend has been a growing realization that continuous quality improvements are often necessary to achieving and sustaining excellent economic performance. One roadblock to providing quality products and services was the definition of what "quality" meant to different customers. Different countries, industries and governments all had varying quality systems that suppliers had to adopt in order to deliver goods around the world. A single worldwide standard was needed to simplify international standards. This gave rise to ISO - the International Organization for Standardization.

The International Organization for Standardization is an organization made up of member nations that develop standards for everything from electronics to management systems. Representatives from the member nations develop specifications and standards. The acceptance of a new or revised standard is by vote, each country getting one vote. The process itself is much more complex involving committees and subcommittees to develop and write the standards, but to accept a proposed standard, each nation has one vote and no nation outvotes another. On the various committees, the U.S. is represented by professionals from industry, education, consulting and Registrar organizations. But the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) is the contact point in the U.S.
