About the CET Division

ASTM International's Critical and Emerging Technologies (CET) Division convenes industry, government, and academia, accelerating the path to standards for the technologies reshaping the global economy. The division engages these technologies at the intersections where standards are needed most, which creates the opportunity to develop standards alongside technologies rather than years after they have spread across society.Its work runs in three stages: pre-standardization gap identification, consensus-based standardization, and post-standardization adoption support. Its technical committees cover additive and advanced manufacturing, artificial intelligence in manufacturing systems, autonomous systems and robotics, commercial spaceflight, and unmanned aircraft systems, delivered through the ASTM AM Center of Excellence, the ASCET Center of Excellence, Wohlers Associates, and the ICAM conference. Roughly 60 staff operate across 12 timezones and four continents. The division moves at the pace of the industries it serves, and it holds the work to the evidence.
