I'm not sure what you mean by "IEEE" in this sentence. (IEEE is a professional organization.) There are numerous IEEE standards that are definitely standards. All standards are recommendations, but sometimes conformance is required by a government or other procuring organization or by a development organizatrion that requires certain behavior on the part of its programmers.
