CEN
CEN coordinates efforts of its members to develop standards to be used by its members and associates. The terms and guidelines are as follows:
Openness and Transparency: all interested stakeholders may take part in the work; representation is secured primarily through the national standards bodies which send balanced delegations to the policy-making bodies and technical committees. (Depending on specific terms of reference, the committees are also open to Associate Members, Counsellors, European trade federations and international organizations.)
Consensus: standards are developed on the basis of voluntary agreement between all parties.National Commitment and Technical Coherence: formal adoption of European Standards is decided by a weighted majority vote of the CEN National Members and is binding on all of them. They must implement the standards at national level and withdraw conflicting standards.
Integration with other international work: standardization is expensive and time-consuming. Wherever possible CEN works with other European bodies and international bodies in order to minimize overlaps and inefficiencies.
The standards programme is coordinated by the Technical Board of CEN.
Most standards are drawn up in technical committees and their working groups.

ISO
ISO has developed over 17500 International Standards on a variety of subjects and some 1100 new ISO standards are published every year. The full range of technical fields can be seen from the listing International Standards. Users can browse that listing to find bibliographic information on each standard and, in many cases, a brief abstract. The online ISO Standards listing integrates both the ISO Catalogue of published standards and the ISO Technical programme of standards under development.
