Background

Deciding appropriate methodology for standard formulation process can contribute to better standardization performance. (De Vries, 1999)

The result of standardization processes can affect the market structure (Blind, 2004)

Follow up a paper made by Bakhtiar et al. (2010) about funding structurization based on level importance in formulating Indonesian National Standard (SNI).

Focus ResearchAs of mid of July 2009, BSN has published 202 SNIs with 113 of them are identically adopted from international

standards by using method of translation.

Theory (1)Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP): an effective and efficient way to analyze the contribution rate of SNI formulation stages.

Identify contribution rate of SNI’s formulation

Theory (2)

Activity Based Costing (ABC): an accurate way to identify

and calculate funding structurization in SNI formulation stages.

Findings

• Contribution rates are different but not significance.

• Funding structurization looks fluctuative.• Publication has the largest contribution

rate• Drafting concepts has the largest cost

Discussion and Conclusion• The importance of standard development process to address

social issues that differentiate between Northern and Southern actors.

• Standard development process through proper consensus principle as well as transparency is necessary to achieve broaden acceptance of the standard.

• BSN support the harmonization of SNI to be in line with the international standard.

• SNI’s development stages are considered as necessary to maximize the satisfaction of its stakeholder

• Further research is needed to identify the reason behind the differences

Contribution• Priority setting through contribution rate

analysis to monitor the allocation of limited resource to be effective.

• Funding structurization as a beginning to identify an equation to determine standard formulation cost.

• Another research to analyze the relationship between contribution rate with other resource.
