What is ISO 28000:2007 Supply Chain Security Management System?
ISO 28000:2007 is an international standard for supply chain security management. It aims to manage security-related risks across all stages of the supply chain. This system ensures the safety of products and services at every phase, enabling organizations to adopt a more efficient and effective approach to security management. ISO 28000 includes all necessary policies and procedures to minimize threats and potential security risks within the supply chain.
Who Can Implement the ISO 28000 Management System?
ISO 28000 can be implemented by any organization involved in supply chain operations, regardless of industry. Companies in logistics, transportation, manufacturing, retail, and many other sectors can enhance their supply chain security by obtaining the ISO 28000:2007 certificate. Small, medium, and large-scale businesses aiming to optimize their supply chain security can apply this management system. Moreover, companies engaged in international trade can use ISO 28000 to strengthen their security levels and comply with regulatory requirements.
How to Obtain ISO 28000 Certification?
To obtain ISO 28000 certification, an organization must first establish a management system that meets the standard’s requirements for ensuring supply chain security. The next step is to apply to an accredited certification body and undergo an audit. After successfully passing the audit, the organization is awarded the ISO 28000:2007 certificate. This process involves building a comprehensive system to identify, prevent, and manage security risks within the supply chain.
How to Verify the Authenticity of an ISO 28000 Certificate?
To verify the authenticity of an ISO 28000 certificate, you should check whether the issuing body is accredited and authorized. Certificates issued by accredited certification bodies conform to international standards. The certificate's validity can be confirmed through the issuing body’s official website or the relevant accreditation authority. Additionally, certificates often include an approval code or QR code for online verification. A reputable certification body will always allow its certificates to be subject to audit and verification.
How Long is the ISO 28000 Certificate Valid?
ISO certificates are valid for three years. However, to maintain their validity, annual surveillance audits must be performed. These audits assess the effectiveness of the system and the organization's continuous improvement efforts.
At the end of the 3-year period, recertification is required. During this process, the entire system is re-evaluated, and if it meets the criteria, the certificate is renewed.
Reminder:
Failure to perform annual surveillance audits will result in the expiration of your certificate.
