14. • An ISO standard is developed by a panel of experts,
within a technical committee.
• Once the need for a standard has been established,
these experts meet to discuss & negotiate a draft
standard.

with ISO’s members who are asked to comment &
vote on it.
• If a consensus is reached the draft becomes an ISO
standard, if not it goes back to the technical
committee for further edits.
