restandardize
Reset uniform criteria
To restandardize is to establish new standards for something that was already standardized, or to bring something back into conformity with existing standards after it has drifted.
Organizations restandardize procedures when old protocols become outdated: The hospital restandardized its infection control practices after the outbreak.
Also spelled restandardise (British).
