Company standards
(Standards for Company or Specific Project Use)
Company standards reflect company policy and preferences.
They can make reference to or be linked directly to company-preferred national or
international standards.
They usually have additional clauses to other standards to reflect company or projectbased specific requirements.
They can be used to show compliance with EU Procurement Regulations (see later).
