Thomas Edison’s Menlo Park Laboratory

Because so much of the #SmartCampus transformation involves electrotechnologies, we walk-through of public commenting opportunities on electrical power, telecommunication, information and communication technology standards twice per month.  Coincides with the day of two IEEE Education & Healthcare Facilities Committee teleconferences at 15:00 Central European time and 3:00 PM Eastern time in the Americas.

Today at 11 AM/ET  we host an open agenda for consensus products setting the standard of care across the full span of technologies relevant to the safety and sustainability agenda of the education facility industry.   On “continuous maintenance” standards development platforms, for example, exposure drafts are open for comment for as little as 30 to 45 days.  There is scant time to respond to the call for public comment.  We set aside one session per month to review and respond.

An update on our collaboration with other like-minded units in the education industry in the US and other nations.  In most cases we conform to participation requirements set by ANSI US Technical Advisory Groups but we also have liaison with other universities in the European Union who conform to the participation requirements of their own national standards bodies.  Use the login credentials at the upper right of our home page.  Because a great deal of content is copyright protected by the ISO, IEC and the ITU, please contact bella@standardsmichigan.com for an advance agenda.

Our monthly review of the ever-expanding constellation of safety and sustainability risk management standards open for public comment; or ahead of prospective comment periods.  This will be the final breakout session for risk management consensus product status review.  We will move risk management standards onto the monthly Finance & Management agenda starting in December.
