4. Description: UK Defence Standardization (DStan) has developed a Through Life Standardization Management Toolset “StanMIS” to enable the implementation of processes described in JSP 920 “Standardization Management Policy”.
StanMIS is a .NET web application incorporating tools to conduct and manage a number of Standardization Management (SM) processes to meet UK MOD capability, including:

StanMIS is hosted on the MOD Intranet at and there is a “cut-down” internet version which will be hosted as part of the DStan website at

Additionally, a tool is required to enable UK Defence Standardization to better meet its legal deposit requirements and to support licencing agreements with third party suppliers of standards.
Further improvements to existing processes are listed below.
