6. STANDARDS
Did you know that ASQ works with the committees that negotiate and write international and national standards (such as ISO 9001 and ISO 14001)?
Working with an ASQ Standards Committee means you and your company are connected to industry experts, are the first to know about the development of domestic and international standards before they are published, and are directly involved in the development of each standard. ASQ’s standards committees work in the areas of quality management, environmental management, dependability, statistics, and social responsibility.
If you or your organization want to take advantage of that advance knowledge, direct involvement, and expert know-how in standards development, contact the ASQ Standards Team or phone 800-248-1946 x7474. |
