Globally recognized and respected, ISO (http://www.iso.org/iso/home.htm) is the world’s largest developer and publisher of international standards, with 161 members worldwide. Standards ensure that products and services possess appropriate characteristics, such as quality, environment friendliness, safety, reliability and efficiency. Products and services that meet standards usually are the ones that satisfy the high quality needs in the industry.
ISO 9001 is a worldwide established quality framework that sets the standard for management systems in general, and for quality management systems in particular.

ISO 9001:2000 (http://www.sgs.com/iso_9001_2000.htm) specifies the basic requirements for a Quality Management System (QMS) which a company must fulfil to demonstrate its ability to consistently provide products and services that enhance customer satisfaction and meet applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.
