Standards and the ASQ Standards Committee

ASQ's Divisions have always been actively involved with the development of ASQ's quality standards. Division members serve as the technical experts of ASQ and are aware of trends and practices that indicate where and when a standard might be needed. Through their representatives, ASQ Divisions bring their ideas to the attention of ASQ's Standards Committee. Without their input, neither ASQ nor the committees it administers could develop standards that reflect the most current technology in quality.

The ASQ Standards Committee is comprised of appointed representatives from the Divisions. It works with the Divisions to develop new standards or reaffirm/revise existing standards, following the consensus process established by ANSI.
