National SME Helpdesks
CEN and CENELEC have established national SME helpdesks: many members offer support tailored for specific sectors and technologies.
National Trade Associations and Federations
They operate in specific industries and may also offer a range of standards-related support and advice services to SMEs.

You can search for standards by title (in English, French and German) and by standard reference. You can also search the scopes of standards to help you identify standards relevant to you.
