As a business owner you may ask yourself, how can I increase
satisfaction for my customers? If you want to increase satisfaction, you want
to increase your ISO (International Organization for Standardization) standard.
An ISO standard is a document that supplies guidelines, characteristics,
specifications or requirements, which can be used frequently to guarantee
products, services, materials and processes are satisfactory for its purpose.
ISO (International Organization for Standardization), an
independent, non-governmental membership organization, has 19 500
International Standards covering almost all aspects of technology and business,
making it the world's largest developer of voluntary International Standards.
ISO International Standards ensure that products and
services are safe, reliable and of good quality. For business, they are
strategic tools that reduce costs by minimizing waste and errors, and
increasing productivity. They help companies to access new markets, level the
playing field for developing countries and facilitate free and fair global
trade.
So how does your ISO Certification benefit your business?
Cost savings - International Standards help optimize operations and therefore improve the bottom line.
