Definitions (IIAR 6, Part 4)
Words matter. Consequently, ANSI/IIAR 6-2019 has introduced thirty-one new definitions in Chapter 2. Eventually, these definitions will be moved to ANSI/IIAR 1 American National Standard for Definitions and Terminology Used in IIAR Standards when that document is next revised, but until that time, Chapter 2 is a necessary resource for those wanting to implement IIAR 6.
We’ll look closely at many of the definitions in subsequent blogs as we discuss strategies for implementing an IIAR 6 ITM[1] Program. The complete list of words and terms that are defined in ANSI/IIAR 6 §2.2 are included below:
