Citing an industry standard will vary depending on the requirements of individual journals and disciplines. At this time there is no specific style guide for industry standards. Talk with your professor/instructor or company to determine which style is best suited for your project.
Make sure you provide enough information so that anyone interested in further information can track down the original document.
The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) recommends using the Chicago Manual of Style for citations. If you are using a style other than Chicago, please explore the appropriate style handbook for guidance and examples.
