8. 7 Key: Standards & Technology Management

9. 8 Technology Road Map Relationships Industry Roadmaps –What are the anticipated developments in Government Regulations ? –What are the expected specifications on which these regulations will be based ? –How can a business harness a technology in a form to exceed anticipated regulatory requirements and provide competitive advantage ? –How can business participate in the regulatory/standards process to gain advantage for their technology/business solutions ? Product Roadmaps –What standards will apply to the products under development ? –How can standards be met with competitive value add to lead the competition in the market place ?

10. 9 Standards Management Global Standards Require –International Consensus –Multiple Geographies –Multiple Industries –Multiple Applications –Multiple Vendors within an Integrated Supply Chain Where are the standardization Opportunities ? What are the company management processes that enable the opportunities to be leveraged ? How are the voice(s) of the customer(s) in an integrated technology supply chain coordinated to achieve non conflicting and mutually beneficial standards ?

19. 18 Key: Impact Of Culture On Standards

20. 19 Standards Is a Participation Process Leadership based on Sponsored (Funded) Participation Consensus based on majority of participating individuals –International, Regional, National Interests –Employee, Professional, Individual Interests –Government, Industry, Organization Interests Participation Strategies –Lead, Participate, Monitor –Promote, Permit, Protest Success is usually a compromise between participants –Win 80:20:00 where 20 does not impact negatively –Win 70:20:10 where 10 impacts negative –Loss 70:10:20 where 20 represents negative impact –Other shades of gray in between

21. 20 Individual Goals/ Views / Actions Dependant upon their sponsor Dependant upon their national culture –Government, Education, History, Language Dependant upon their own Character Standards……a single process; multiple scenarios –Voluntary Standards created by Industry adopted by Government –Regulations specified by Government, adopted by Industry
