This website discusses management practices.
For many years, international
standard setting bodies have used experts to
develop management standards that
codify existing best practices. In order
to promote understanding and to help encourage
the use of these important
standards, we’ve translated some of them into plain English.
International standard setting bodies such as
ISO and
IEC have published standards
to control the quality of products and services, to ensure the
safety of medical devices
and food products, to manage and control risk, and
to protect information. They’ve also
published standards that are used to
protect the environment, the health and safety
of workers, and the integrity
of supply chains. Taken together, these
management
standards offer a wealth
of knowledge and information that both public and private
organizations can
use to improve their management practices, to enhance
their performance, and
to achieve sustained success.
