STANDARZITACION BODIES


The European standardization system

Three European Standards Organizations are officially

recognized as competent in the area of voluntary technical

standardization:

• CEN – European Committee for Standardization

• CENELEC – European Committee for Electrotechnical

Standardization

• ETSI – European Telecommunications Standards Institute

AENOR is: - The Spanish member of CEN and CENELEC, and

- One of the Spanish members of ETSI

Market Economy feature: Competition

•Differentiation

•Leadership in costs

Standardization responds to both strategies, nevertheless differentiation is usually the main reason

•And rationalises the product range

•The reduction of unnecessary diversity in components

•The availability of multiple suppliers or service providers

•The reduction of non-quality, occupational, environmental, social costs,...

•The interchangeability and interoperability of products

•The compatibility of research and development with market practices

Standardization improves

•Early access to information is considered important

•A major motivation for those business which participate in the standardization process is their edge over non-participating companies in terms of insider knowledge

Companies are able to assert their interests in the standardization process. •More than 50% exert a great to very great influence on the substance of standard •46% prevent undesired contents being included •48% get desired contents included

Market Economy feature: Foreign trade

European trade •Large quantity of products have European standards

•Many of them are used in European legislation

•An increasing number of services have European standards

European standards are the best means to sell products and provide services in the EU-EFTA countries

For EU candidate countries, they are one of the most effective ways to enable their access

Market Economy feature: Foreign trade

International trade •Essential role of international standards in international trade and, more specifically, in the WTO/TBT

They enable the opening of markets to manufacturers

They guarantee a world variety of suppliers

They simplify contractual agreement

•Technical regulations based in international standards are assumed not to create barriers to trade

Market Economy feature: Investment •Companies can reduce the economic risk of their R&D activities by participating in Standardization: When a company can influence the content of standards to its advantage, the risk is lower.

•Companies also can reduce R&D costs: R&D can be reduced when the participants in standards work make their results generally available, and research need not be duplicated.

•Standardization has a positive effect on buying power over suppliers. Dependence of a business on a single supplier can be reduced by Standardization. •Companies increase confidence in the quality and reliability of suppliers who use standards.

Market Economy feature: Consumers Consumer protection

Threat: Monopolization

Overly close cooperation can lead to a monopolistic structure, with all the resulting disadvantages for the consumer

Standards contribute to lower accident rates •Standards are seen as a factor in accident prevention •Even where it is possible to determine the actual contribution of standards to lowering accident rates, it is unable to evaluate this in monetary terms. •Representatives of consumer organizations generally participate in the standardization process when there are questions of product safety

Market Economy feature: Knowledge

•Standardization is a suitable instrument for disseminating new ideas, services, products and technologies.

•International standards are an important technological transfer tool for developing countries

New standard are more numerous in innovative sectors. The lifetime of standards is shorter where there is greater technological change.

Market Economy feature: Legislation

•Standards assist the state. Because they are formulated by experts, standards are of great use to the state in drawing up legislation: law can refer to standards

When a legislative body requires a technical rule, it will frequently turn to standards. If a company has been actively involved in developing theses standards, it can adopt the standard before it comes law, voiding costs. 25% of businesses surveyed had already chose such a strategy at least once 36% had been able to make large to very large savings

Standards for Industry 4.0.

Confluence of trends and technologies promises to reshape the way things are made

The aim of the AENOR forum is to make the company the national benchmark in all relating to the standardisation strategy for Industry 4.0. The company wants to be the reference point for the Spanish industrial sector in information regarding developments in standards in this field.

The Forum is also where AENOR wants to channel initiatives from Spanish industrial sectors that want to promote, via standardisation, the implementation of Industry 4.0.
