Technical Standards Development Organizations

Technical Standards Development Organizations (SDOs) are groups that create, maintain, and update technical specifications and guidelines used across industries and technologies. These standards ensure compatibility, safety, quality, and interoperability among products and services. Organizations like IEEE, ISO, and ANSI bring together experts from various fields to develop consensus-based standards that industry players follow voluntarily. This process helps manufacturers, engineers, and users work together efficiently, promoting innovation while maintaining consistency and safety in technological products and infrastructure.
