What is ISO 28000?

ISO 28000 is a series of international standards which help organisations with global supply chains to understand their level of risk, giving them a framework to act on any weak points. It also helps businesses of any size, and at any point in a supply chain, to develop reliable disaster management strategies. 

TÜV SÜD’s supply chain audits are comprehensive, objective and rigorous. We are a trusted partner to businesses of all sizes around the globe who value our expertise when it comes to assessing their upstream and downstream risks.

Why ISO 28000 certification is important

In today’s economy, supply chains stretch across the globe, connecting a wide range of factories, raw material producers, storage locations and logistics partners. While this brings many benefits, it also introduces supply chain risks that are hard to control, such as natural disasters, fires, cyberattacks or even terrorism. All of which could cause serious supply chain delays.

Wherever your sit in the supply chain, your business depends on others and others depend on you, so any delays or issues can have serious knock-on consequences. ISO 28000 certification can help mitigate the risk of that happening.
