ISO 20652:2006确定、定义并提供了信息生产者和档案之间关系和交互的结构。它定义了从制作人和档案馆之间的初始接触到档案馆接收并验证信息对象所需的行动结构的方法。这些措施涵盖了开放式档案信息系统（OAIS）参考模型（见ISO 14721）中定义的摄取过程的第一阶段。ISO 20652:2006描述了职能实体管理（“协商提交协议”）和接收（“接收提交”和“质量保证”）的部分内容。

ISO 20652:2006 identifies, defines and provides structure to the relationships and interactions between an information producer and an archive. It defines the methodology for the structure of actions that are required from the initial time of contact between the producer and the archive until the objects of information are received and validated by the archive. These actions cover the first stage of the ingest process as defined in the open archival information system (OAIS) reference model (see ISO 14721). ISO 20652:2006 describes parts of the functional entities administration ('negotiate submission agreement') and ingest ('receive submission' and 'quality assurance').
