How to start?
Begins with an idea and need
Write it down
Check ASTM for existing standard that already addresses the need
What type of standard should you write
• Classification , a systematic arrangement or division of materials, products,
systems, or services into groups based on similar characteristics such as origin,
composition, properties, or use
• Practice, a definitive set of instructions for performing one or more specific
operations that does not produce a test result
• Guide, a compendium of information or series of options that does not
recommend a specific course of action
• Terminology, a document comprising definitions of terms; explanations of
symbols, abbreviations, or acronyms
• Test Method, a definitive procedure that produces a test result
• Specification, an explicit set of requirements to be satisfied by a material,
product, system, or service.

How to start cont…
Individual or Group effort
• Individual, gets all the glory and gets all the pain
– One view point
• Group shares all the glory but also shares all the pain
– Multiple views and input when developing standard
– Share the work
– ASTM membership not requirement to be on team, but recommend that at
least one group member be an E53 member
– Choose a lead for the group, this person becomes the technical lead and is
the main contact
Where to find your Group
• Local NPMA chapter members
• Co-workers
• Ask E53 for assistance

ASTM Process – Step One the Work Item
Who to contact
• Determine which subcommittee best fits the idea for proposed standard
• Contact subcommittee chairman and make your pitch
– Provide scope of work item
Register your Work Item
• ASTM member logs into the ASTM website
• Click on My Committees
• Left hand side click on Ballots and Work Items under My Tools
• Follow instructions to register a new work item
– Will need to enter a brief summary during this process
– Work Item number will be assigned
9 9 .
Step One the Work Item cont…
Complete the Work item
• Use ASTM template (will be provided upon registration)
• Work with your group
Submit Work Item
• Send completed work item to the subcommittee chairman and our ASTM E53
staff manager
Editorial Task Group Review
• Subcommittee chairman will submit Work Item for ETG review
• Small group from E53 Executive Committee reviews for form and style and
provides any feedback to the task group lead
• After revisions are completed Work Item is resubmitted to subcommittee
chairman and ASTM E53 staff manager
• It is now ready for ballot

13 13 .
Negatives what to do with them
Don’t give up
• Its is extremely rare that a fist time Work Item makes it through with no
negatives
• This is all part of the consensus process
Work with your Group
• Review all negatives
• Determine if you agree or do not agree with negative
• If team does not agree contact voter to discuss, they may not have understood
the intent and be willing to withdraw negative
Use the negative to create a stronger standard
• Valid points should initiate a revision
• Submit for ballot
How long will the process take
• It takes as along as it takes
14 14 .
It’s a Standard – Congratulations !
What next
• Work Item will received a new standard number
• Must be approved by ASTM Committee on Standards
• Publication can take up to 8 weeks
How long will it remain a standard

• Decision to ballot as is, revise or withdraw will be made
• If not re-balloted standard will automatically be withdrawn at end of its eighth
year
Revision process
• New task group is formed (former members of developing group will be
contacted if available)
• Review and revisions are completed

Implementing a Standard
Why
• Contractual Requirement
• Good Business Practice
• It will reinforce what I have been doing all these years
Does it apply to your organization?
• Read the standard
– Scope
– Significance and Use
– Process
16 16 .
Implementing a Standard cont….
Review current process/procedures
• Possibly flow chart
Identify requirements from the standard
• All Practices have the “must, shall, will” statements
Identify differences between current process and standard
• What will have to change, what will it take
Identify stakeholders
• Inform them of possible change, allow for review
• Who is responsible for procedure and policy change
• Know your internal process for change
17 17 .
Update Procedures
• Reference Standard
– Noblis introduction for its Receiving process
The receiving process includes the physical receipt of goods,
inspection of goods, reconciliation of goods against due-in records and
Purchase Orders (PO), tagging of goods, delivery of goods, preparation and
distribution of receiving documents, and initiation of records.
All goods delivered to Noblis will be processed through Receiving to ensure the
creation of documentation to support Asset Management, Accounts Payable
and the finalization of Purchasing documentation. Asset Management and
Receiving will use system generated reports to monitor the on-order goods
until they are received. All goods are provided secure storage and protection
during the receiving process.

Take away
Anyone can create a work item just need the initial idea
Work item is the jumping off point for ASTM process
Recommendation - Don’t do it alone
Patience and effort are required
Determine what standard works for your organization
Compare existing procedure with standard
Know you stakeholders and who internal process for making the changes
Make plan to implement and change procedure if necessary
Its important to our profession
Don’t wait on others step up, take the plunge
