ESTA Technical Standards Program

À propos du Technical Standards Program

Le Technical Standards Program (TSP) a été créé en 1994 par l'ESTA en réponse au nombre croissant de membres qui rencontraient des situations où l'absence de normes, ou l'imposition de normes développées en dehors de l'industrie du divertissement, rendait de plus en plus difficile la conduite des affaires en toute sécurité, de manière efficace et rentable. En tant qu'association professionnelle dans un secteur basé sur la technologie, il était du devoir évident de l'association de servir ses membres en établissant un programme pour traiter les questions de technologie et de normes.

Chaque norme répond à un problème.

ANSI ACCREDITED
The accreditation of the Technical Standards Program by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) means that the ESTA program for standards-making has passed detailed scrutiny by ANSI to make sure it meets ANSI's stringent requirements for fairness and freedom from control by special interests. This accreditation allows ESTA to submit standards for the ANSI public review and comment process to ensure that all parties affected by a standard have had an opportunity to participate in its development, and allows ESTA to publish the standards with the ANSI designation.

The ANSI designation on a standard is universally recognized as a mark of technical diligence and commercial impartiality. The ANSI accreditation is a major milestone for the entertainment technology industry. The ESTA Technical Standards Program is the only ANSI-accredited standards program dedicated to the needs of the entertainment technology industry.

THE TSP STRUCTURE
The Technical Standards Program is the largest and most effective volunteer driven program in the industry. With the assistance of ESTA's Technical Standards Manager, hundreds of volunteers are responsible for every aspect of the program. Oversight for the program is provided by the Technical Standards Council. The actual work of writing standards is carried out by the Working Groups and their task groups. You do not need to be a member of ESTA to participate in the Technical Standards Program.

TSP DOCUMENTS
All standards, recommended practices and informational handbooks are available for free download thanks to an alliance with ProSight Specialty Insurance.
