April 9, 2003 Slide 2 Overview Introduction to the American National Standards Institute Background: Standards Coordination Needed ANSI Homeland Security Standards Panel (HSSP)  Formation /Goals and Expectations  Roles and Tasks  Actions to Date  Interim Steering Committee Structure  Considerations with Respect to HSSP Structure Next Steps Questions and Answers

April 9, 2003 Slide 3 Mission To enhance the global competitiveness of U.S. business and the American quality of life by promoting and facilitating voluntary consensus standards and conformity assessment systems and ensuring their integrity. A Private- and Public-Sector Partnership Since 1918

April 9, 2003 Slide 4 Academia Individuals Government Companies Trade Associations A Federation of members representing... Professional Societies Service Organizations Standards Developers Consumer and Labor Interests and many more. Bringing the Private- & Public-Sectors Together Since 1918

April 9, 2003 Slide 5 ANSI is...  an “umbrella” organization for the U.S. voluntary consensus standards community  a private-sector led and public-sector supported standards coordination body  a not-for-profit organization ANSI is not...  a standards development organization (SDO)  a government agency

April 9, 2003 Slide 6 ANSI’s roles and responsibilities are to:  accredit U.S. Standards Developers, U.S. Technical Advisory Groups and conformity assessment systems  ensure integrity of the U.S. voluntary consensus standards system by audit of SDOs and appeals process  provide regional and international access  respond to urgent national priorities  offer a neutral policy forum for standards coordination issues

April 9, 2003 Slide 7 Background: Standards Coordination Needed The National Strategy for Homeland Security (July 2002) identified the need for standards to support homeland security (HS) and emergency preparedness January 2, 2003 Report for Congress states: “Neither the federal government, nor the nongovernmental sector presently has a comprehensive, consolidated program for developing new preparedness standards.”

April 9, 2003 Slide 8 ANSI Forms Homeland Security Standards Panel (HSSP) February 5, 2003: Formation of HSSP announced Emphasis on:  promoting and facilitating a cooperative partnership between the public and private sectors HSSP Co-chairs to be provided by ANSI and government  providing the venue where each agrees to cooperate  recognizing the significant work that is already underway or that has been completed by a vast array of standards-setting bodies  coordinating and facilitating interoperability among the many homeland security standards solutions being proposed

April 9, 2003 Slide 9 HSSP (continued) For planning purposes, a model based on the ANSI Information Infrastructure Standards Panel (IISP)  An ANSI-sponsored group formed in the mid-1990’s to identify requirements for the emerging U.S. Information Technology infrastructure (“Information Superhighway”) Relies upon an expansive, open and well-tested network to align standardization experts with urgent national priorities. Recognizes need to be flexible as standards needs change

April 9, 2003 Slide 10 ANSI Timeline on HSSP DecemberJanuaryFebruaryMarch 9 th NPC recommends HSSP be formed, (IISP model proposed) 3 rd CRS Report (“No forum for standards coordination”) 3 rd Letter to all ANSI Members, overwhelming support responses 7 th Meeting with DHS and selected ASDOs 10 th BOD unanimous motion to form HSSP 13 th HSSP Oversight Team meets, planning well underway 5 th Press Release issued on HSSP and asking for participation 10 th NIST ICSP Standards Executives briefing on HSSP 19 th HSSP Oversight Team: ANSI Chair, Past Chair, NPC Chair, OMF Chair meets with staff 30 th ANSI Chair and President meet with Director of NIST NIST supports HSSP 10 th Meeting with DHS to overview HSSP planning, future meeting agreed 12 th NPC briefed on HSSP formation, structure 31st HSSP Oversight Team meets, notice to members authorized 20 th ANSI Executive Committee briefed on HSSP progress 19 th ANSI Press Release announcing ANSI and Government Co-chairs 24 th HSSP Oversight Team meets 13 th –20 th Notice to Interim Steering Committee (ISC) for April 4 meeting of ISC.

April 9, 2003 Slide 11 HSSP Roles Facilitate the development and enhancement of HS, critical infrastructure protection, and emergency preparedness standards Serve as private/public sector forum for standards issues that cut cross-sector A forum for information sharing on HS standards issues Will not itself develop standards Not a “gatekeeper” for access to DHS or other agencies

April 9, 2003 Slide 12 HSSP Tasks Continue to actively solicit participation from industry sectors and groups traditionally outside the voluntary standards system (e.g., fora/consortia) Identify current work and identify unmet needs Catalogue existing standards/projects to facilitate standards development in various homeland security- related focus areas where they do not exist Establish and maintain an online database of reported HS standards/projects -- a portal to HS standards information, especially for the non-traditional standards user

April 9, 2003 Slide 13 Main Actions Taken Outreach to solicit participation and to begin gathering data about existing standards  A questionnaire was distributed to nearly 300 standards developers on February 3, 2003  Recipients were encouraged to promulgate the survey to other interested parties, especially non-traditional standards-setting bodies such as consortia Substantial number of responses received; more arriving daily. Currently being catalogued. Press Releases and Presentations at Conferences to reach others (i.e., non-ANSI)

April 9, 2003 Slide 14 Actions Taken (continued) Development of HSSP website ( and Homeland Security portal on ANSI Onlinewww.ansi.org/hssp Meetings with staff of the Department of Homeland Security and other federal agencies, groups Formation of Interim Steering Committee (ISC) as a planning group to discuss overall structure for the HSSP going forward  Initially comprising representatives from each of the Target areas identified in the National Strategy for Homeland Security
