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

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, 2003Slide 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, 2003Slide 7
Background:Background:Standards Coordination Needed 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, 2003Slide 8
ANSI Forms Homeland Security ANSI Forms Homeland Security Standards Panel (HSSP)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, 2003Slide 9
HSSP HSSP (continued)(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

HSSP Roles 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, 2003Slide 12
HSSP TasksHSSP 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, 2003Slide 13
Main Actions TakenMain 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)
