Conformance to standards and specifications: These are standards laid down by national and international authorities. For instance, in Canada there is the Standards Council of Canada (SCC). The United States has many standards bodies including MIL (US military standards) and ASTM (American Society for Testing Materials). There is also the ISO (International Standards Office), which has its secretariat in Geneva, from whose guidelines many countries? standards are developed.
