Briefly
The ISO 28000:2022 standard specifies the requirements for a Security Management System (SeMS) to ensure the safety and resilience of supply chains. Since supply chains form the backbone of global trade — particularly in international operations — maintaining their security is essential.
ISO 28000 helps organizations identify potential risks within their supply chain, implement preventive measures, and establish risk-based decision-making processes to reduce disruptions or security breaches.
URS certifies organizations against the ISO 28000:2022 standard through a team of competent auditors who conduct comprehensive assessments and provide practical recommendations that add value to the organization’s overall security framework.
Description
Developed to secure and facilitate global trade, ISO 28000:2022 provides a structured framework for organizations involved in national and international supply chains.
By implementing a security management system aligned with ISO 28000, organizations can establish a minimum acceptable level of security across their supply chain or its specific segments.
The standard also supports compliance with the Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) program under the UAE Federal Customs Authority and aligns with the World Customs Organization (WCO) Framework of Standards, enabling organizations to integrate seamlessly into national and international trade facilitation programs.
