IPC技术交流活动执行委员会(TAEC)的立场是 IPC出版物的使用和实施是出于自愿的,也成为客户和供应商关系的一部分。当IPC标准/指引更新和新修订版本的发行时,技术交流活动执行委员会(TAEC)的意见是新修订版本的使用作为已经存在的关系的一部分不是必然的，除非合同要求。技术交流活动执行委员会(TAEC)推荐使用最新的修订版本。

IPC Position Statement on Specification Revision Change

It is the position of IPC’s Technical Activities Executive Committee (TAEC) that the use and implementation of IPC publications is voluntary and is part of a relationship entered into by customer and supplier. When an IPC standard/guideline is updated and a new revision is published, it is the opinion of the TAEC that the use of the new revision as part of an existing relationship is not automatic unless required by the contract. The TAEC recommends the use of the latest revision.
