The guidance in our words, the evidence a reviewer asks for, the common gaps and what to do before the second edition lands.
Open the registerHow should the organization transition to the new ISO 22316 edition?
Find every citation of ISO 22316 in contracts, policies and tenders. Keep the 2017 edition as the applicable standard until the second edition is published. Build the attribute evidence now, because it survives the change. Write a transition note with an owner and a review date, and watch the ISO record.
Last updated: . Written from the 2017 edition and the ISO record. Not legal advice; does not certify.
Audit the citations first
The transition risk is a citation that names an edition the organization cannot support. Search contracts, policies, tenders and customer questionnaires for ISO 22316. Record which edition each names and who owns the document. An unversioned citation is a risk once the second edition is published.
Keep the 2017 edition in force
Do not replace a 2017 citation with a draft. The 2017 edition remains the published standard until the second edition is published. If a customer asks for the new edition, say that it is at stage 50.00 and offer the 2017 edition plus the transition note.
Build the evidence that survives
The purpose, context, role, culture, knowledge, resource, discipline and evaluation evidence is the place to start. The 2017 attributes are the starting point, not a claim about the FDIS. A team that waits for the second edition delays the record without reducing the work.
Write the transition note
One page: the citations found, the edition each names, the owner, the review date and the trigger for updating. Name the publication of the second edition as the trigger. Keep the note with the resilience record and send it to the people who own the contracts and policies.

Questions
Should we rewrite our policy now?
Update the citation only when the second edition is published, unless the policy already cites a draft. Use the waiting time to build the evidence, not to rewrite the clause references.
What if a tender asks for the new edition?
Answer with the 2017 edition, the FDIS stage and a transition note. A tender that requires an unpublished standard is asking for something the organization cannot yet be assessed against.
How long will the transition take?
The citation audit is days. The evidence work is weeks to months, depending on the organization. The planning date of 15 February 2027 is an estimate, not a deadline.
