Technical Board of the General Directorate of Standardization

DPS Technical Board

The management of the technical work of standardization is carried out by the Technical Board. This technical body meets at least twice a year to review, consult and make the final decision on issues related to the organization, coordination and planning of standardization work.

The Technical Board (TB) is composed of representatives of the parties interested in standardization, who voluntarily contribute technical expertise to this process. The approval of the members is made by the Board of Directors upon the proposal of the Director General of the DPS in the capacity of the Chairman of the TB.

The management of the technical work of standardization is delegated to the Technical Board, whose function, prior to its establishment, was performed by the DPS Group of Experts (GES).

In accordance with Law no. 9870 “On Standardization” dated 09.12.2010, the Technical Board of the DPS was established, which operates based on its regulation, approved by the Board of Directors.
