17. Interoperability Process Reference Manual (IPRM) The IPRM is a key foundational element of the SGTCC Testing and Certification Framework. It will enable the adoption of consistent and measurable certification and testing policies and procedures across all Smart Grid standards based on the conformance, interoperability, and cybersecurity testing experience and expertise of SGTCC participants, and the widely accepted ISO Guide 65 and ISO 17025 international standards for laboratory and certification program quality management systems.

18. Interoperability Process Reference Manual (IPRM) The SGTCC has developed and issued this Interoperability Process Reference Manual (IPRM) detailing its recommendations on processes and best practices that enhance Smart Grid interoperability testing and certification programs. Implementation of the IPRM by Interoperability Testing and Certification Authorities (ITCAs) will increase the quality of standards-based, secure and interoperable products in the Smart Grid marketplace. The SGTCC believes that implementation of the IPRM will lead to reduced deployment costs of Smart Grid systems and devices and enhanced product quality with respect to interoperability and conformance, ultimately providing confidence to end users through meaningful certification programs.
