70 PCB007 MAGAZINE I SEPTEMBER 2019 ple of such a trend for the coming future. PA would have to connect with standard develop- ment organizations (SDO) to push their inter- sectors requirements. PA would also have to influence the governments or their representa- tives (like ECHA) to provide more effective and efficient support to make regulations happen (Figure 16). Conclusion With a Planned Proposal The three stages described in this article could be implemented with a three-phase "ABC" stra- tegic business plan (as named by the IEC pro- cedure) as a proposal to align all stakeholders on the same objectiv es for an accurate, secure, and efficient reporting system globally for all sectors. This strategic business plan would include: • Clear objectives for each phase to be evaluated at the end of each phase • A status-target-plan (STP, actions) with precise assignments: STP with who + what + when with the current situa- tion and targets that have been proposed above with due dates This strategic business plan would have to be built when the phasing and the scope of work will be established after a review of the sectors' needs, is- sues, and challenges; some pri- orities (high, medium, low) and implementation terms (short, medium, long) would be as- signed to the business require- ments and the standard require- ments. Figure 17 shows an example of what could be such a plan in terms of time phases or work packages (draft plan). An initial agreement should be found to define the target for the common body (declaration and list) regard- ing the existing standards. This plan should al- so consider the dynamics of change by IPC and IEC committees: • IPC-175x committees could amend a stan- dard in one year or revise it in 2–3 years • IEC 62474 edition 2 released end of 2018 will make it stable for several years before a new edition (edition 1 released in 2012, that means 6 years with edition 2) Some resistance to change could be raised by organizations and authorities that have already adopted one standard, so this is important to Figure 16: Possible future governance model for developing standards.
