The Sandia Quality Program Office began researching ISO 9000 in January 1998. As we
have made our way into the world of ISO 9000, we see a world in which global
trade between nations continues to grow at a rate 3 to 4 times faster than
national economies; a world in which the design, manufacturing, marketing, and
customer service operations of a growing majority of individual enterprises
are distributed across many countries; and a world in which electronic
communications have dramatically increased technical collaboration between
experts in academia, governments, and industries from all countries.
The increasingly rapid development of technology in many sectors will
continue to present major opportunities as well as underlying dangers for the
general welfare of society. It will therefore be incumbent on all social and
economic partners to collaborate closely in guiding the applications of
appropriate technologies toward sustainable economic development and global
prosperity.
In this rapidly evolving scenario globally applicable standards like ISO 9000
will play a key role. Such standards will become primary technical instruments
supporting international commerce.
In this context we want to be an influential and innovative leader as well as
an effective and responsive provider for ISO 9000 services. We have assembled a
wealth of information and menu of services for you to view. We look forward to
serving you in the near future.
