About ISO 9001:2000 Registration
ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is a global network that identifies what International Standards are required by business, government, and society, develops them in partnership with the sectors that will put them to use, adopts them by transparent procedures based on national input, and delivers them to be implemented worldwide. ISO has a current portfolio of over 15,000 standards that provide practical solutions and achieve benefits for almost every sector of business, industry and technology.
