About the New Standards Committee (NesCom)

NesCom is responsible for ensuring that proposed standards projects are within the scope and purpose of IEEE, assigned to the proper Society or other organizational body, and interested parties are appropriately represented in the development of IEEE standards.

The committee examines Project Authorization Requests (PARs) and makes recommendations to the IEEE SA Standards Board regarding approval.

NesCom is comprised of at least 12 but no more than 18 IEEE SA members.
