Scope:

This American National Standard defines a method to estimate the durability and service life performanceof identification (ID) cards within specified application classes.

This standard is to be used by card end users, card issuers, card manufacturers, card componentsuppliers, and card personalization equipment manufacturers to make predictive comparisons ofperformance of ID cards.

Failure to conform to specified criteria noted within this documentshall be negotiated between the involved parties.
