“Reducing the Costs of Standards Activities” is written to help organizations understand the total costs of creating and managing a standard. The most transparent costs include such things as the standards infrastructure, organizational membership dues, and travel for meetings, but the most significant cost is that of the people doing the work of developing the specification.Every standards organization needs to manage membership, facilitate collaboration among working groups, ensure compliance with policies and processes, and provide effective balloting procedures. Kavi fills those needs with a secure, web-based enterprise solution that supports the work of your standards organization and members while minimizing the diversion of time and resources from the organization’s mission.
Built on years of experience, the Kavi platform incorporates the process knowledge and disciplines that are essential to administration, building consensus, and developing viable standards. Implementation is simple, without the extensive adaptation an off-the-shelf collaboration platform would require.
