What is ISO 28000:2007 –Supply
Chain Security Management System Certification?
ISO 28000 certification is a management
system standard which has been developed specifically for logistics companies
and organisations that manage supply chain operations.ISO 28000 is a management
system specification for the protection of people, property, information and
infrastructure; in companies and organisations participating in local, national
and international supply chain operations.
This standard identify the risk levels across your
supply chain operations and this
information then enables your organization to carry out risk assessments and
apply the necessary controls with supporting management tools (i.e. document
controls, key performance indicators, internal audit, and training).
It will also help your organization link
security management to many other aspects of your business activities. Our ISO
28000 audit will look at all activities controlled or influenced by
organizations that impact your supply chain security, including transportation
of goods along the supply chain.

systems protect your goods from point of manufacturing to point of sale. As
