International Organization for Standardization
-
ISO has developed over 18 000 International Standards on a variety of
subjects and some 1100 new ISO standards are published every year.
ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is the world's largest developer and publisher of International Standards.
ISO is a network of the national standards institutes of 163 countries, one member per country
Indian Representative- Bureau of Indian Standards(BIS)
"International Organization for Standardization" would have different acronyms in different languages ("IOS" in English, "OIN" in French for Organization internationale de normalization), its founders decided to give it also a short, all-purpose name.
-
Why standards matter When products, systems, machinery and devices work well and safely, it is
often because they meet standards. Ex: AGMARK,ISO,NAAC etc.
Standards ensure desirable characteristics of products and services such as
quality, environmental friendliness, safety, reliability, efficiency and
interchangeability - and at an economical cost.
when standards are absent, we soon notice. We soon care when
products turn out to be of poor quality, do not fit, are incompatible
with equipment that we already have, are unreliable or dangerous.
Ex:Garments
-
