Abstract
The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) presents this summary report to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in compliance with OMB Circular A-119 and Public Law 104-113, the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA). As required by Section 9 of the Circular, this report, prepared by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), describes activities related to the use of voluntary consensus standards (VCS) by 26 federal agencies during fiscal year (FY) 2012. These federal agencies, listed in Appendix A, fulfilled the reporting requirements of both the OMB Circular A-119 and Section 12 (d) (3) of the NTTAA by providing information on their activities related to the use of voluntary consensus standards in regulation, procurement, and conformity assessment.Citation
