i've just called Omnicom, Inc in Vienna,VA for some ISO standards
and was surprised to learn that Omincom has been take over by
Phillips Business Information (formerly Phillips Publishing).

Phillips will be handling ISO/CCITT orders that Omnicom use to
distribute. (Phillips only took over some business aspects of Omnicom.)

i don't know if costs were affected or not, but i'm still paying $38.50
for 10 pages of information!
