Daryo May 18, 2018:
you need to give more context a full sentence, at least.

Without any context, hearing someone talking about "the standards people" would not make me think of "the people who make standards" but of "the people in charge of enforcing standards".

What is needed is the original text itself, not your interpretation of it.

les gens qui établissent les normes

Peer comment(s):
disagree Daryo : exactly - more context needed! What's the point of guessing when diametrically opposed meanings are possible?

la communauté des normes (de la normalisation)

On peut dire si c'est une sorte de proclamation "Nous, la communauté des normes".
