Rigorous Standards Process6 March 20122 Consensus Due Process Openness Right of Appeal Balance The widely respected IEEE-SA standards-development process, which adheres to the WTO/TBT Principles, produces results that reflect the collective consensus view of participants and enable industry to achieve specific objectives and solutions
IEEE Standards Development Process 3 Project approval Develop draft standard Sponsor ballot Standards Board approval Publish standard Idea! Revise or withdraw standard
Two Types of Standards Development 4
What is myProject?myProject is: A free web-based tool that facilitates the IEEE Standards process Database that holds information related to the standards process A tool used by IEEE and SA members, staff, and whomever wants to participate in the standards process. 5/12/2014 5
IEEE Standards Development: Project Approval Process 6
IEEE Standards Development: Mobilizing the Working Group Working Groups are open groups Comprised of individuals for individual standards projects or representatives from entities for corporate standards projects. Participants in WGs have technical expertise, knowledge and dedicated interest in the technology being standardized Individuals and/or corporations in working groups work collaboratively to reach consensus in order to move the project forward 5/12/2014 7
IEEE Standards Development: Tips for Draft DevelopmentDevelop an outline Assign leads amongst working group members to developed clauses of the draft Avoid writing document in meetings Refer to IEEE Standards Style Manual often for document structure and utilize draft template. Utilization of a technical editor, to gather inputs and ensure technical consistency Do not make the draft, or contributions to the draft, public 5/12/20148
IEEE Standards Development: Sponsor Ballot –Invitation & MECOnce the WG has an approved draft after approval from WG/Subcommittee/Sponsor, they should submit the draft for MEC through myProject M andatory E ditorial Coordination (MEC)*Typically 30 daysBallot Invitation Working Group Chair initiates the Invitation in myProjectTypically 30 day invitation periodMust have balance within ballot group
Sponsor Ballot & MembershipMembership requirements Individual Method IEEE–SA Individual Membership is needed to join an individual ballot Or pay a per ballot fee Corporate Method At least a Basic Corporate membership is needed to join an entity ballot 5/12/2014 10
Balloting the Standard – Sponsor BallotWorking Group Chair initiates the Request to Ballot in myProject Typically a 30 day ballot Balloters can approve, disapprove, abstain Consensus must be reached for the standard to move forward*Comment Resolution period begins after ballot closes Resolve comments (accepted, rejected, revised)*Initiate Recirculation(s)10 daysDraft should show changes 5/12/201411
IEEE Standards Development: Submitting to RevCom RevCom -The Standards Review CommitteeOnce a project has achieved approval within the balloting group it can be submitted to RevCom for final review RevCom makes recommendation to the SASB who makes final approval. Next step is for the IEEE Editorial, the editor will contact the WG Chair to process the draft for final publication
IEEE Standards Development: Publication of Standard/MaintenanceStandards must have a revision approved by the IEEE-SASB prior to the close of year 10 in order to remain activeAny Standard without an approved revision will become inactive after year 10A revision action can result in: Changes to the Standard Changes to only the references or bibliography No changes This process enables sponsors to focus on revisions of standards that require maintenance action, rather than a diffusion of Sponsor efforts to meet administrative requirements for reaffirmation or stabilization Have a process that permits a standard to be revised when addressing comments during maintenance so that IEEE standards will remain pertinent and of high technical value
IEEE Standards Development: Publication of Standard/MaintenanceRationaleProcess Allows standards developers to concentrate on keeping IEEE standards relevant Reduced IEEE’s legal risk associated with outdated standards by making needed revisions where warranted by the Sponsor, Working Group, and Sponsor Balloting Group Status of Inactive standards will now include; inactive-superseded: These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard inactive-reserved: These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process inactive-withdrawn: These standards have been removed from active status through a Sponsor ballot
