Business plans

All technical committees of ISO prepare a business plan for their field of activity. The business plan describes the main aspects and dynamics of the economic, social, regulatory or other environment in which the committee operates as well as its main objectives and current strategies, its internal structure and cooperation with other organizations. Business plans are regularly reviewed by the technical committees and updated as required. A business plan includes the areas of activities of all the subcommittees operating under a technical committee.

ISO invites members of the public and special interest groups to review any of these plans and to provide their comments.
