M/053 - CEN/EWOS 1994 Workprogramme
Standardization mandate forwarded to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI in the field of Information Technology and Telecommunications concerning the adoption of a set of European standards and execution of related pre-standardization activities as defined in the CEN/EWOS work programme for 1994
Mandate M/053 requests CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI to adopt a set of European standards and carry out related pre-standardization activities in the field of Information Technology and Telecommunications. This mandate aligns with the CEN/EWOS work programme for 1994, aiming to promote harmonization and interoperability across the EU. The activities focus on developing and implementing standardized specifications to support the advancement and integration of IT and telecommunications systems throughout the European market.
Purpose
The mandate M/053 was issued to standardization bodies CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI to adopt a comprehensive set of European standards in the field of Information Technology and Telecommunications. The goal was to support the development and harmonization of these sectors by ensuring interoperability, compatibility, and coherent technical frameworks across Europe.
Standardisation request
The request required the three European standardization organizations-CEN (European Committee for Standardization), CENELEC (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization), and ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute)-to collaborate following the tasks outlined in the CEN/EWOS 1994 work programme. This involved delivering European standards and carrying out pre-standardization activities to align technology development with market and regulatory needs within the IT and telecommunications domains.
Expected deliverables
- Adoption and publication of a set of European standards related to Information Technology and Telecommunications.
- Execution of related pre-standardization activities as defined in the 1994 CEN/EWOS work programme.
- Provision of technical documents facilitating interoperability and market integration.
- Support for legislative or policy initiatives requiring harmonized technical specifications.
Context
Mandate M/053 reflects the European Union's strategy in the mid-1990s to foster the Information Society by promoting standardization in IT and telecommunications. Given rapid technological advancements and market liberalization trends, coordinated standardization efforts by CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI were critical to ensuring seamless integration and competitiveness of European industry. The 1994 work programme (CEN/EWOS) served as the framework for these efforts, guiding the development of standards responsive to emerging technological and regulatory requirements.
This mandate covers the adoption of European standards and related pre-standardization activities in the field of Information Technology and Telecommunications, as specified in the CEN/EWOS work programme for 1994.

Mandates are issued under Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 and help ensure that products and services meet the essential requirements set out in EU directives and regulations.
M/053 is a European Standardization Mandate titled "Standardization mandate forwarded to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI in the field of Information Technology and Telecommunications concerning the adoption of a set of European standards and execution of related pre-standardization activities as defined in the CEN/EWOS work programme for 1994". Standardization mandate forwarded to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI in the field of Information Technology and Telecommunications concerning the adoption of a set of European standards and execution of related pre-standardization activities as defined in the CEN/EWOS work programme for 1994 There are 14 standards developed under this mandate.
Standards developed in response to a mandate and cited in the Official Journal of the European Union become "harmonized standards". Products manufactured in compliance with harmonized standards benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the corresponding EU directive or regulation, facilitating CE marking and market access across the European Economic Area.
