Abstract

Standards and specifications for public security are missing in many technical aspects as well as the areas of communication protocols and security management. Several technology management research gaps related to this field exist, particularly regarding R&D stage standardisation. This chapter gives insight into the development of a specification (DIN SPEC) for the protection of transportation infrastructure based on civil security research results. Besides providing practical examples for activities related to the popular standardization strategy framework of Sherif, Jakobs, and Egyedi (2007), the chapter suggests its extension. Standardisation challenges and solutions are also unveiled. The chapter finishes by outlining key aspects that may influence the adoption of the specification. Fields of application of the findings include, in particular, fast track standardisation procedures with voluntary implementation of the results, the standardisation of R&D results, and standardisation projects among small groups.
