Standards Development Organizations
How we can help
Partnering with CCC
CCC, a global leader in licensing and content workflow solutions, provides two trusted services that complement and extend revenue opportunities for SDOs while providing business customers with convenient access to standards materials, when, where, and how they prefer.
Each year, CCC collects licensing and document delivery fees from these customers for their use of copyrighted material, and then distributes royalties to participating rightsholders, such as SDOs. The royalties paid come from the fees collected from the content users.
CCC’s professional services team works with SDOs to enhance existing document production workflows and drive Digital Transformation initiatives.
