Standards Development

As a Fellow of the Institute of Measurement & Control (IMC), Jacek actively in IMC’s Standards Policy Panel and was chairman of the BSI and ISO committees for flow measurement standards. These committees are listed below.

Due to Jacek’s active participation in the development of wide range of measurement standards this provides strategic insights for the compliance with standards.

We need support from experts, vendors and colleagues for the drafting of standards, in order to develop and improve the standards.

If you wish to have any input into these standards or are able to contribute to their development with your expertise please let me know via email on jacek@jk-consulting.co.uk.

The details of the standards under development are given on the News page
