ISO standards development process

The ISO standards development process involves several key steps to create internationally recognized standards. First, a need for a standard is identified, often through industry requests or emerging issues. Then, a working group of experts is formed to draft the standard. This draft is shared for public comment to gather feedback. The draft is revised accordingly, and then approved by participating countries. Finally, the approved standard is published and regularly reviewed to ensure it remains relevant and effective. This collaborative process ensures that standards meet the needs of diverse stakeholders globally.
