1 ISO International Standards Today s state-of-the-art global solutions for CEOs
2 Why International Standards have to be on the leadership agenda Leaders in business, government and civil society face multiple challenges. Facing up to these challenges requires leadership qualities like vision, intelligence and courage but they are not enough. Leaders also need practical tools they can rely on. ISO is the organization with a proven track record in distilling international experience and wisdom to develop and deploy solutions based on state-of-theart technology and good practice. Leaders can count on ISO and the International Standards it offers.
3 I S O I n t e r n a t i o n a l S t a n d a r d s Your challenges ISO s solutions Innovation Cost reduction Product safety Access to global markets Risk management Environmental impact Quality management Customer relationships Energy efficiency Social responsibility Provide a common language and metrics to cut time-tomarket for products and ensure interoperability Optimize product design cycle as well as product development and production costs Limit risk of accidents and provide technical basis for complying with regulations Prevent trade barriers, open up new markets and expand existing ones, facilitate trade Assess and reduce risk and help manage uncertainty Reduce negative impacts and improve environmental performance Enhance customer satisfaction and support continual improvement Provide framework for contractual obligations and complaints management Facilitate rational management of energy and open up the market for energy-efficient technologies Translate ethical principles into effective actions 1
4 International Standards contribute positively to economic prosperity and growth
5 I S O I n t e r n a t i o n a l S t a n d a r d s GBP 2.5 billion 1% 17% and 9% Strategic to SMEs In the United Kingdom, standards make an annual contribution of GBP 2.5 billion to the economy, and 13% of growth in labour productivity is attributed to standards. British Standards Institution (BSI) and Department of Trade and Industry In Germany, economic benefits of standardization represent about 1% of gross domestic product (GDP). German Institute for Standardization (DIN) In Canada, growth in the number of standards accounted for 17% of the labour productivity growth rate and about 9% of the growth rate in economic output (real GDP) over the 1981 to 2004 period. Standards Council of Canada (SCC) and Conference Board of Canada In Switzerland, International Standards are a strategic tool that supports Swiss manufacturers competitiveness through access to new supply and export markets.

6 International Standards provide economic benefits and cost savings across industries
7 I S O I n t e r n a t i o n a l S t a n d a r d s 80% AUD 100 million A trillion-dollar industry AUD 1.9 billion USD 928 million 84% and 35% USD 3 billion Standards and related conformity assessment activities have an impact on an estimated 80% of world commodity trade. US Department of Commerce In Australia, sampling standards in the mining industry generate economic benefits between AUD 24 million and AUD 100 million annually. Standards Australia (SA) and Centre for International Economics, Australia The MPEG-2 digital coding standard has generated an estimated market of USD 2.5 trillion. MPEG Licensing Authority, 2008 In Australia, the implementation of standards in the electrical and water industries generates economic benefits estimated at approximately AUD 1.9 billion annually. Standards Australia (SA) and Centre for International Economics, Australia The STEP standard for the exchange of digital product information potentially saves USD 928 million a year by reducing interoperability problems in the automotive, aerospace and shipbuilding industries alone. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), USA, % of global cargo travels by container and more than 18 million containers were estimated to be in service throughout the world in Containerization conforming to International Standards has reduced time of transport to market by 84% and costs by 35%. ISO/TC (Technical Committee) 104, Freight containers, business plan, 2004 International Standards for crane maintenance programmes result in an estimated annual worldwide savings of approximately USD 3 billion. ISO/TC 96, Cranes, ISO Focus magazine,
8 International Standards impact the bottom line
9 I S O I n t e r n a t i o n a l S t a n d a r d s IT company superior quality delivery Oil & gas sector savings of USD 180 million Car manufacturer economies of scale and quality consistency Fluid distribution SME energy consumption reduced by 35% and packaging costs cut to almost zero Having a scalable and effective process framework helped an IT company grow at a rapid rate, while maintaining an average delivered quality at least six times superior to other companies worldwide. A multinational company calculated that if the systematic use of standards could be expected to generate savings up to 1% of the industry s annual expenditure, the savings would amount to USD 180 million. International Association of Oil and Gas Producers, ISO Annual Report 1999 International Standards have enabled a major car manufacturer to achieve economies of scale in manufacturing and to deliver more consistent products with lower production variations. A company distributing fluid systems reduced its energy consumption by approximately 35% and cut its packaging costs to almost zero through implementing ISO s environmental management system standard. Unless stated otherwise, examples are sourced in guest views of industry leaders in ISO Focus magazine or publications of ISO national members. 7
10 International Standards support the pursuit of innovation
11 I S O I n t e r n a t i o n a l S t a n d a r d s Sustainability Climate change Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Nanotechnologies Water supply Energy ISO s broad range of standards provides practical tools for addressing all three dimensions of sustainable development economic, environmental and societal. International Standards help to tackle climate change at four levels: Monitoring climate change Quantifying greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions Promoting good practice in energy management and design Opening up world markets for energy-efficient technologies. Standards are increasingly crucial to innovative new working methods in global supply chains. A number of recent standards for RFID and intelligent transportation systems, facilitating freight movement and intermodal transport, will enable new technologies to be applied to enhance security and efficiency and thus foster innovative change. The nanotechnology field is growing rapidly. International Standards in this area are focused on terminology, testing, modelling, science-based health, safety and environmental practice. These technologies are, for instance, applied to the new e-passport, using biometric facial imagery as its main security feature, which is recognized for its innovative use of standards. Standardization of services related to the management of drinking water is a new field of work being tackled by ISO, which focuses on the management of provision of water, the preservation of water supply in crises and the efficiency of distribution networks. ISO standards are helping to facilitate the dissemination of innovative technologies and to structure markets for them in areas that include solar energy, nuclear energy, hydrogen technologies, and solid and liquid biofuels, as well as of technologies, metrics and good practice impacting on energy efficiency such as energy management systems, intelligent transport systems, the thermal performance of buildings, and the comparison of energy systems and energyware balances. 9
