Input Invited to ANAB-IAAR Survey

The ANSI-ASQ National Accreditation Board's ANAB brand (for accreditation of management systems certification bodies) has partnered with the Independent Association of Accredited Registrars (IAAR) to launch an all stakeholder survey for the management systems conformity assessment industry.

The objective of this survey is to gain feedback on accredited third-party management systems conformity assessment from all stakeholders for knowledge and improvement. Respondent categories include accreditation bodies, certification bodies, certified companies, regulatory bodies, trade associations, certified company customers, and consumers of certified companies' products. Areas of inquiry include ISO, IAF, accreditation bodies (including assessors), certification bodies (including auditors), certified companies, training providers, and consultants.

The survey will enable ANAB and IAAR members to gain opinions on accredited third-party certification and to provide data to different parties for knowledge and continual improvement.

The survey will be live for an extended period of time. After a substantial quantity of results is obtained, ANAB and IAAR will evaluate whether to extend the survey further.
