Excerpt from Maintaining Our International Competitiveness: The Importance of Standards and Conformity Assessment on Industry, Vol. 12: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Technology of the Committee on Science, U. S. House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, First Session, June 29, 1995 The subcommittee met at 9:30 a.m. in room 2325 of the Rayburn House Office Building, the Honorable Constance A. Morelia (chairman of the subcommittee) presiding. Mrs. Morella. The hearing will now come to order. I want to thank you all for being so very patient. This has somehow become very typical around here. One doesn't know from one five minutes to the next whether or not we will be running over to vote or not. We are setting a record I think certainly during this period, which I think had once been set in 1978, for the number of hours continuously where we had been voting. As you probably have heard and certainly if you watched C-Span at any point if you don't sleep well at night and turn it on at 4 in the morning there we were or 2 in the morning, and we are still in session since 10 o'clock yesterday morning. So if our eyes close just know we are still listening. If we don't get to all the questions, I hope you will allow us to be able to submit questions to you for your response. We are convening today to discuss improvements in Federal and State standards and in conformity assessment. I look forward to hearing from the very distinguished panelists regarding this subject, and again I reiterate my thanks to you. Standards play a crucial part in all facets of our lives. Standards are the reason it is possible to buy film from Japan and use the film in an American camera. They allow you to purchase any computer disc, regardless of the brand, and use it in your hard drive Under the direction of the 102nd Congress, the National Research Council released a study titled, "Standards, Conformity Assessment, and Trade in the 21st Century," and that came out in March. The study made 10 recommendations, which I look forward to addressing more closely in today's hearing. The United States, unlike most other countries, has a very decentralized voluntary consensus standards system.

Striving for and maintaining international competitiveness is the number one challenge facing U.S. corporations of the 1990s and beyond. The new realities of increased business competition, alliances, and interdependence manifest that globalization is no longer a corporate objective, but a way of business. How to Manage for International Competitiveness is an ideal sourcebook for companies desiring a competitive edge in the global marketplace. It provides vital information for executives and managers who must understand and be able to identify and manipulate the various parts essential for developing and maintaining a competitive edge worldwide. This volume provides needed practical guidance for improving firms’performances in competitive world markets. It outlines and analyzes managerial perceptions of competitiveness, and addresses how firms create and sustain competitive advantages while still conducting domestic affairs in a competent manner. Many topics are covered in this comprehensive book, including how effective managers recognize and cope with competition, how firms can and do choose differing strategies, and how successful international firms compete with global strategies involving trade, politics, and cultural factors. In working to improve organizational performance and setting future agendas, students and professors of international business, technology, and engineering; consultants; managers of multinational firms; and policymakers will find the topics discussed in this helpful volume most useful for understanding and achieving international competitiveness.

Now beyond its eleventh printing and translated into twelve languages, Michael Porter’s The Competitive Advantage of Nations has changed completely our conception of how prosperity is created and sustained in the modern global economy. Porter’s groundbreaking study of international competitiveness has shaped national policy in countries around the world. It has also transformed thinking and action in states, cities, companies, and even entire regions such as Central America. Based on research in ten leading trading nations, The Competitive Advantage of Nations offers the first theory of competitiveness based on the causes of the productivity with which companies compete. Porter shows how traditional comparative advantages such as natural resources and pools of labor have been superseded as sources of prosperity, and how broad macroeconomic accounts of competitiveness are insufficient. The book introduces Porter’s “diamond,” a whole new way to understand the competitive position of a nation (or other locations) in global competition that is now an integral part of international business thinking. Porter's concept of “clusters,” or groups of interconnected firms, suppliers, related industries, and institutions that arise in particular locations, has become a new way for companies and governments to think about economies, assess the competitive advantage of locations, and set public policy. Even before publication of the book, Porter’s theory had guided national reassessments in New Zealand and elsewhere. His ideas and personal involvement have shaped strategy in countries as diverse as the Netherlands, Portugal, Taiwan, Costa Rica, and India, and regions such as Massachusetts, California, and the Basque country. Hundreds of cluster initiatives have flourished throughout the world. In an era of intensifying global competition, this pathbreaking book on the new wealth of nations has become the standard by which all future work must be measured.
