InfoComm’s Performance Standards Program Seeks Liaisons to Other Associations
As InfoComm’s Performance Standards Program has started work on its sixth standard development project, there is recognition that this work involves interfaces with many other professional organizations. In an effort to formalize these interactions, the Performance Standards Planning Committee has authorized the formation of the Performance Standards Liaison Committee. Currently, 14 volunteers are covering the following associations: AIA AAJ (Academy of Architecture for Justice), AES, ASA, BACNET, BICSI, CEDIA, IALD, IES, InfoComm Green AV Task Force, NFPA, SES, SID, Syn-Aud-Con and USGBC.
Additional liaisons are being sought with the following associations: AECT, AIA, ASHRAE, ASID, ASTC, BCA, BSI, CSI, ESTA, IMCCA, ISO, NAB, PLASA, PMI, SIA, SMPS, SMPTE, TIA, USITT and others that InfoComm members may see as valuable. Liaisons must be a member of the other association, and be active in its standards, education or governance. Liaisons will have minimal responsibility, including quarterly web conferences, calls to InfoComm if there are interesting or pressing developments, and representation of InfoComm Performance Standards within the other association. If you would like to participate, please email standards@infocomm.org

Looking to the Future: Standardization May Offer More Wins Than Losses
As AV designers, we naturally want to find ways to standardize things.

It’s like this for our entire industry: Technicians become familiar with the typical deployments and related […]
