Inaugural Committee · In formation
Purpose

Purpose

i5Benchmark is forming its inaugural Scientific & Standardization Committee (SSC), a multidisciplinary and multi-stakeholder body that will help guide the scientific integrity, methodological development and responsible evolution of the Industry 5.0 Benchmark Framework.

The SSC will help ensure that i5Benchmark develops as an independent, evidence-informed and internationally relevant framework.

Its purpose is to provide scientific and professional scrutiny of the Framework, challenge assumptions, review significant methodological developments, and help ensure that dynamic revisions remain credible, explainable and responsive to changes in policy, technology, evidence and lived experience.
