Developing standards

If the standard you want doesn’t exist yet, we can help you create it. This can be a British Standard to meet an industry need, a PAS to fulfil an immediate market need or your own private standard which will improve and formalize your internal processes.

Get involved with standards

There are many ways you can get involved from commenting on draft standards to becoming a consumer representative. Industry experts help us to develop and publish British Standards and books, gaining priceless knowledge, contacts and recognition by doing so. Interested in joining us?

Know what you want to get hold of? You can buy any current British Standard at the BSI Shop, as a PDF download or hard copy. You’ll also find much more here, including books and CDs explaining key standards, and how to license standards.

Get instant access to a vast array of standards, and discover quicker and easier ways to work with them.

Our expert tutors bring alive the practical benefits that standards offer and make a permanent difference to how you work. We’ve designed our courses for organizations of all sizes and they include public courses, in-house training and distance learning.

If you need training tailored to suit your specific needs, we’ll design it for you and deliver it at your premises, saving you the disruption and cost of travelling elsewhere.

We’ll check and test the quality of what you do, just as we already do for thousands of clients in over 172 countries worldwide. And with more full-time assessors than any other certification body, we are one of the largest and most experienced certification bodies you could find.

Whatever stage of development you’re at, we can test your products. From research and development, pre-production, prototype, batch and audit to full compliance testing, we have one of the widest testing and certification capabilities in the world.

To experience real, long term benefits, you need to make compliance to a standard a deeply embedded habit. Our software tools equip you to monitor and audit what’s happening across your organization so you can drive continual improvement.

When you’re on your journey to improve your business, you can’t allow your performance to drift. We can provide ongoing training to continually refresh your knowledge and challenge your people to improve even more.

Just how secure is your supply chain – and what damage could it do your business if it broke down? We can help you identify the risks in your supply chain, and show you how to mitigate them.

We have worked in more than 50 countries to deliver technical assistance projects which support their quality infrastructure systems and help them to compete and trade in global markets.
