The standardization system is more than half a century old. Today it has 21,000 standards covering virtually all aspects of business and technology. The most well-known line of standards is ISO 9000. They relate to management practices in manufacturing and business. The ISO 9001 standard was developed in 1984. Today more than a million organizations all over the world are certified according to it. Russia has its national equivalent: GOST R ISO 9001-2015.
“We, ourselves are engaged in auditing and inspecting manufacturers of medicines for compliance with the rules of Good Manufacturing Practices,” says Vladislav Shestakov, Director of SID&GP. – And for this reason the issue pertinent to receiving a certificate for the conformity with the requirements of international quality standards was only a matter of time. Few years ago we have introduced a quality management system in our Institution, then in 2018 we received an ISO certificate, and this year we have successfully affirmed it”.
ISO certificates are developed by experts from all over the world, who have the relevant experience and knowledge in different spheres. The development of ISO standards is done in a way that allows enterprises to function at the optimum level and meet the consumer expectations. ISO certificates are recognized all over the world and with the company holding such certificate, it gives a guarantee that it commits itself to and conforms to the highest quality standards.
