CEDIA (Fishers IN) recently announced that the American National Standards Institute (ANSI, Washington DC) has approved CEDIA as an Accredited Standards Developer (ASD). The designation is more than 18 months in the making. Meeting the rigorous requirements as an ansi asd shows that cedia's processes to develop standards meet requirements involving openness, balance, lack of dominance (relating to voices from stakeholders), due process and consensus. "Quite simply, this milestone puts us in a higher, more globally recognized echelon when it comes to developing industry standards," CEDIA's Senior Director of Technology & Standards, Walt Zerbe, said. "Carrying the ASD designation demonstrates to stakeholders everywhere that CEDIA is dedicated to creating standards that are not only of the highest caliber, but also driven by the market and developed openly and through rigorous buy-in. When CEDIA sets standards, you can be assured that all parties-from integrators, to manufacturers, to end users and all points in between-are represented."
