Why are standards important for innovators?

Standards help you to apply good business practices, improving how you work effectively with customers and suppliers, including:

  • Creating efficiencies and cost savings through consistent production and processes
  • Effective innovation management within your enterprise and beyond
  • Demonstrating to customers that you are committed to high quality, safety and security
  • Supporting supply chain management and collaboration with partners
  • Improving the sustainability of your business
