The American National Standards Institute leads standards, conformity assessment, and related activities in the United States of America • Founded in 1918, ANSI is a private, non-profit organization • ANSI is not a government agency or a standards developer • Accreditation role: SDOs, CBs, CIs

  3. The ANSI Federation represents more than 125,000 companies and organizations and 3.5 million professionalsworldwide. Bridge between public-sector policies and private-sector solutions

  4. What Is a Collaborative? • ANSI Standardization Coordination Collaboratives are established to promote the development and compatibility of voluntary consensus standards and conformity assessment programs necessary to support national and global priorities • Coordinate the efforts of the private and public sectors • Environmental scan to identify existing standards and compliance programs, both national and international • Define where gaps exist • Recommend where additional work is needed • Identify organizations that can perform the needed work

  5. ANSI Panels, Fora, Workshops, and Collaboratives 2004 Nanotechnology Standards Panel 2005 Healthcare Information Technology Standards Panel 2006 ID Theft Prevention and ID Management Standards Panel 2007 Biofuels Standards Coordination Panel 1994 Information Infrastructure Standards Panel 2003 Homeland SecurityStandards Panel 2012 ANSI Energy Efficiency Standards Coordination Collaborative 2007 ANSI Network on Chemical Regulation 2009 Workshop Toward Product Standards for Sustainability 2009 ANSI-NIST Nuclear Energy Standards Coordination Collaborative 2010 The Financial Management of Cyber Risk 2011 ANSI Electric Vehicles Standards Panel

  6. An Effective, Cross-Collaborative Standardization Model Framework defining scope, deliverables, and timeline, as well as other associated documentation Policy assuring openness, transparency, impartiality, effectiveness, relevance, consensus, coherence, and due process Road map to guide the work efforts Process to identify standards that meet requirements, identify gaps, and minimize duplication Framework for conformity assessment Sustainable business model Effective and committed leadership

  9. Roadmap to Guide Work Efforts • How do we define success? • Timing is everything. • Where are we going? When you get to a fork in the road, take it.

  10. Standards Inventory • What standards are out there already? • Technical characteristics, maturity • Identify gaps, outreach • Not an SDO!

  11. Certification 3rd party conformity assessment Supplier’s Declaration 1st party conformity assessment Perceived Risk Independence and Rigor of Conformity Assessment Framework for Conformity Assessment

  12. Empty pockets never held anyone back.Or did they?
