Some of my questions are: 1. We want to produce a written procedure indicating how we will know that standards we use are up-to-date and that we have all that are required. There are some subscription services which take a list of standards and provide updates as needed. Any other ideas? Anyone know some good web sites? (some have been mentioned, but not having web access at the time I didn+t save them.) Global Engineering has a World-Wide Standards Index, with a program to compare your list of standards and identify updates. ILI has a similar product (whoever they are.) St. Lucie Press, 561-274-9906, has a subscription service for European Directives which sounds pretty good. For US $95.00 per directive (or sometimes group of related directives) they+ll send you the current directive and place you on an order list for revisions. When a revision is made they send it to you and bill you $95.00. 2. The above will work for published standards. Any thoughts on how to identify/get drafts standards? I used to be on several standards writing committees, and word got around. I no longer have that access. 3. With many design engineers, one paper copy of each standard is very restrictive. Multiple copies are expensive. Electronic copies come in a bewildering variety of formats. Any suggestions concerning standards access? I+m primarily interested in: AAMI (medical equipment) CSA EC directives EMC (CISPR, EN, IEC) IEC/EN/ISO MIL UL ------------------ RFC822 Header Follows ------------------ Received: by nmisq2.miss.nt.com with SMTP;13 Nov 1996 00:41:02 -0500 Received: from ruebert.ieee.org by corpgate.rich.nt.com with SMTP (PP); Wed, 13 Nov 1996 04:34:34 +0000 Received: (from daemon@localhost) by ruebert.ieee.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id SAA01088 for emc-pstc-list; Tue, 12 Nov 1996 18:27:43 -0500 (EST) Message-Id: <c=US%a=_%p=Physio-Control%l=PHYSIOCONT/PHYSIO/[email protected]> From: "Farnsworth,Heber" <[email protected]> To: Post News <[email protected]> Cc: "Ross,Marilyn" <[email protected]> Subject: Up-to-date standards List-Post: [email protected] Date: Tue, 12 Nov 1996 15:25:00 -0800 X-Mailer: Microsoft Exchange Server Internet Mail Connector Version 4.0.837.3 Encoding: 37 TEXT Sender: [email protected] Precedence: bulk Reply-To: "Farnsworth,Heber" <[email protected]> X-Resent-To: Multiple Recipients <[email protected]> X-Listname: emc-pstc X-List-Description: Product Safety Tech.
