Pillar 1 Conformity Assessment

OVERVIEW

Conformity assessment is the process used to demonstrate that a product, service or system conform to specified requirements and commonly used by many standard development organizations (SDOs). By promoting conformity assessment relevant to ITU-T Recommendations and showcasing product conform to ITU-T Recommendations, Pillar 1 of the ITU C&I Programme aims to ensure the strategic goal of the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) to develop interoperable, non-discriminatory and demand-driven international standards for International telecommunication.

Pillar 1 ‘conformity assessment’ of ITU C&I Programme aims to:

- identify and promote conformity assessment (CA) of ITU-T Recommendations
- showcase product conform to ITU-T Recommendations
