ISO Standards
IAKS Accredited
ISO stands for “International Organization for Standardization” and refers to the quality management system standards developed by the International Organization for Standardization. Founded on 23 February 1947, this international organization aims to facilitate the worldwide exchange of goods and services and to increase cooperation in scientific, technological, intellectual and economic fields. ISO continues its activities with the equal participation of national standards organizations from 135 countries and directs global trade. Its headquarters is located in Geneva, Switzerland.
One of the most important functions of ISO is to prevent different standards developed for similar technologies in different countries or regions from creating technical barriers to trade. It therefore eliminates these barriers to trade by preparing internationally recognized standards such as ISO 9000 quality management standards and other product standards. ISO certifications demonstrate compliance with globally accepted quality standards and increase the competitive advantage of organizations.
ISO 9001, one of ISO’s most common standards, sets out the requirements for an effective quality management system. Organizations can obtain ISO 9001 certification when they meet the requirements of this standard. This certificate proves that products and services are produced to international standards and the effectiveness of quality management systems. ISO certification processes support organizations to increase customer satisfaction, improve operational efficiency and achieve continuous improvement.
