ANSI standards are developed through a consensus-driven process involving stakeholders from various sectors, including industry, academia, government, and consumer groups. The process typically includes the following steps:
Identification of the need for a standard. Formation of a technical committee or working group. Drafting of the standard based on research, expert input, and public comments. Review and approval by the committee and ANSI. Publication and dissemination of the standard.
This inclusive process ensures that the standards are comprehensive, practical, and widely accepted.
