    The People

    The face of the UK's paper industry

    The Confederation of Paper Industries (CPI) is the trade association for the UK's paper-based industries.

    With a broad variety of member interests including promoting paper as a positive, sustainable UK industry, it’s an organization with a huge, growing range of standards to monitor.

    The Challenge

    Seeking a long-term strategy

    The CPI had relied on select industry contacts for ad hoc updating of their members around standards, but this was no longer sustainable and they needed a new long-term solution.

    Hundreds of standards are relevant to the CPI’s member organizations, in areas ranging from the safety of machinery and food packaging to sustainable manufacturing and environmental management.

    The CPI needed to keep its members updated on relevant standards across 12 key areas. Without the time and resources to do it internally, they needed reliable and experienced help with monitoring and reporting on standardization work.

    The Solution

    Showing the lay of the land

    We worked with CPI, giving clear understanding of paper sector-relevant standards through a Standards Landscape research project, delivering a monthly report identifying changes as they occur.

    A Standards Landscape provides a bespoke, factual analysis of the landscape for a specific market, technology, service, product or activity. The Standards Landscape research project for the CPI ensured that they had an accurate and up-to-date view of the entire landscape.

    The CPI’s bespoke Standards Watch report is now delivered monthly, identifying changes to standards in revision or under development, covering the selected BSI, CEN and ISO Committees as agreed in the Standards Landscape, and taken from 46 committees highlighted by CPI.

    A new page of successes

    The monthly report has made a huge difference to CPI members. Benefits include:
