- Abstract
- The purposes of this report are: (1) to help standards developers prepare standards that are more acceptable to regulatory agencies, by providing a better understanding of the needs of agencies and how they go about their business; and (2) to suggest how regulatory agencies might improve their relationships with private sector standards organizations so they may better tap the expertise of the private sector.
