in French: Comité commun pour les guides en métrologie

The tasks of the JCGM are: to promote the use of the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (known as the GUM); to prepare supplemental guides for its broad application; and to revise and promote the use of the International Vocabulary of Basic and General Terms in Metrology (known as the VIM). The JCGM has taken over responsibility for these two documents from ISO TAG 4, who originally published them under the auspices of the BIPM, IEC, IFCC, ISO, IUPAC, IUPAP and OIML.
