About SC4 Standards

TC184/SC4 Industrial Data is a subcommittee of the International Organization for Standardization ISO. SC4 operates through a series of interdependent Working Groups and the Quality Committee

SC4 is developing standards which provide capabilities to describe and manage industrial product data throughout the life of the product.

The Committee's work is published through a series of multi-part standards in eight areas of industrial product data technology that include

•   ISO 10303 (STEP - Standard for Product data representation and exchange)
   
•   ISO 13584 (PLIB - Parts Library) PLIB website
   
•   ISO 15531 (MANDATE - Industrial manufacturing management data).
   
•   ISO 15926 .(Process Plants including Oil and Gas facilities life-cycle data)
   
•   ISO 18629 (PSL- Process specification language)
   
•   ISO 18876 (IIDEAS - Integration of industrial data for exchange, access, and sharing)
   
•   ISO 22745 (Open Technical Dictionary)
   
•   ISO 8000 (Data Quality)
   
•   ISO 29002 (Exchange of Characteristic Data)
   

Working documents for the committee are available as SC4 N-numbered documents

In addition, SC4 harvests external specifications relevant to industrial data developed by other organizations and converts them into ISO deliverables (International Standards, ISO Technical Specifications or ISO Publicly Available Specifications).

•   ISO/PAS 16739 (Industry Foundation Classes 2.x)
   
•   ISO/PAS 20542 (Reference model for systems engineering)
   
•   ISO/PAS 22720 (Association for Standardisation of Automation and Measuring Systems Open Data Services 5.0)
   
•   ISO/PAS 26183 (Product Data Quality Guidelines for the Global Automotive Industry, V 2 Rev 1)
