Standards Promotions

Apart from formulation, emphasis is laid also on regular review of the standards to keep them in line with modern technological developments, as also to harmonise them with international standards or their equivalents.

A well orchestrated plan has been drawn up for improved adoption of Indian Standards by industry, large scale purchasing organisations, statutory bodies and universities. The plan lays emphasis on :

	company standardization and association level standardization
	effective implementation of standards through sectoral committees, such as those dealing with steel, food, textiles, information technology, automotives and power
	state level committees on standardization and quality systems to ensure better implementation of Indian Standards
	use of Indian Standards in legislation
	greater interaction with public and private sector undertakings
	basing public purchases on standards and standard marked products
	use of standards in educational system
	Information and SSI Facilitation Cell (single-window Service)
	intensified media campaign to create standard awareness
