ISO 28000 - Security Management System for the Supply Chain

As global trade grows, so do the ways in which criminals can infiltrate an organization's supply chain. Risks can be reduced by means of ISO 28000 certification.

ISO 28000 is a standard for the security management system, applicable in all organizations that are part of a supply chain, starting with production, storage, distribution (to include the entire chain of road, rail, sea or air transport) to the recipient.
The security management system for the supply chain in compliance with ISO 28000 identifies the level of risk for the supply chain operations. This gives the organization the opportunity to carry out risk assessments and apply appropriate methods to keep these risks under control.

The standard is designed for organizations that want to improve their security processes in terms of prevention, implementation, traceability and documentation. In addition, a security management system contributes significantly to increasing the level of security awareness on all levels of the organization. The security standards that are already implemented (AEO, C-TPAT, TAPA, etc.) can be gathered in a single complete system in accordance with ISO 28000.

With the implementation of a security management system in accordance with ISO 28000, an organization improves its reliability and security for the entire supply chain.

  • Supply chain risk management
By monitoring and managing security risks in the organization and supply chain, ISO 28000 certification helps protect processes and allows management to concentrate resources in the most problematic areas.
  • Improving efficiency and reducing costs
