Enhancing Technical Documentation: IEC-ISO System Development Proposal

This proposal aims to improve technical documentation through a structured approach, focusing on the IEC-ISO Documentation System. By promoting the “systems approach” and providing practical examples, the project seeks to enhance understanding and application of IEC standards. It proposes a series of publications and the formation of a Project Team to develop and expand upon the documentation system, catering to various industries and organizations. The project’s objectives include increasing the quality of technical documentation, aiding users in utilizing standards effectively, and facilitating educational initiatives in the field. The proposal emphasizes the importance of broadening perspectives and improving the coherence of standards within the documentation domain.

  4. Contents • Background • Present situation • Proposal • Discussion

  5. Background Background • Idea first time presented at the TC3 Workshop in Cape Town 2005 • Promotion of the “systems approach” • Need for realistic examples of application of IEC 61082-1 • Registered as Stage 0 work • 1st draft outlined • Effort to co-ordinate with ISO/TC10 was positively met 2006 • 2nd draft prepared • Then no real activity

  6. Background The system and its environment

  7. Contents • Background • Present situation • Proposal • Discussion

  8. Present situation Present situation • Discussed at the TC3 meeting in Paris 2007 and it was decided to keep it, but postpone it because of lack of resources • Elaboration of more complete examples has appeared also in the revision of IEC 81346

  9. Present situation Present situation • An overview of the entire documentation system would be useful for the definition of the scopes and the relations of standards to being revised and developed • Revision of IEC 62023 to be started • Relation of IEC 62023 to IEC 62569 (BDS) • Relation of IEC 62569 to IEC 61360

  10. Contents • Background • Present situation • Proposal • Discussion

  11. Proposal Publication series • Elaborate a series of publications on the “IEC-ISO Documentation System” in co-operation with ISO/TC10 • Part 1: Overview and general description of the system • Part 2: Application example for XYZ products • Part 3: Application example for PQR plants • Part n: Etc. • The publications are likely to be reports, not standards

  12. Proposal Project Team and task • Set up a formal Project Team for the development of the stage 0 project • Tasks: • To elaborate on the structure for the series of publications • To develop part 1 to a state where it can be appended to a formal new work item proposal • To propose product/plants for which application examples could be prepared (These examples should then preferably be developed by specific teams with the appropriate application knowledge)

  13. Proposal Rationale and usage • Help users to use the full potential of the documentation system • Help users to broaden their view and/or to see the place of their documentation in a bigger context • Increase the quality of the technical documentation generally • Help users to understand how IEC and ISO standards supplement each other • Help schools and academia to teach use of standards in the documentation area

  14. Proposal Rationale and usage • Especially useful for Small and Medium size Enterprises and organizations that have limited resources for the study of standards • …

  15. It is a demanding task, even if the publications are just reports!

  16. Contents • Background • Present situation • Proposal • Discussion

  17. Discussion Discussion • Is there a need or just “nice to have”? • On the market? • In IEC for other TCs? • In our own TC? • Can we manage? • Can we find resources?

  18. Thank you!
