c) Basic service requirements for service providers [4.27] that are generic and independent of a specific application

d) Requirements for the approval authority [4.4] approval of IVSs and service providers [4.27]

e) Legal, regulatory, and enforcement aspects.

The scope includes the requirements for the IVS capability in the vehicle, and the definition of the roles of the service provider [4.27], 'Communications Service Provider', IVS installer [4.16], 'IVS maintainer [4.17] ', approval authority [4.4], and the user [4.31], for cooperative telematics applications for regulated commercial freight vehicles [4.25].

NOTE The specific 'certification' or 'approval' procedures for specific application services are a matter for the jurisdiction and are outside the scope of this (or any) part of ISO 15638. However, approval authorities and jurisdictions are recommended to use the guidance of ISO 17000 and ISO guide 65 when developing and implementing such procedures.
