СТАНДАРТИЗАЦІЯ І СЕРТИФІКАЦІЯ ЯК ЗАСІБ ЗАБЕЗПЕЧЕННЯ ЯКОСТІ

Abstract

This article is devoted to issues related to standardization and certification of processes, products and services. It substantiates the need to use standardization and certification as methods of quality assurance. The terms "standardization" and "certification" are defined. The purpose, main tasks and principles of standardization are highlighted. It is noted that a characteristic feature of standardization is that its scope and application, level of development are in a wide range. It has been established that one of the key problems of scientific, technical and economic development of countries is the problem of improving the quality and competitiveness of products and services. It is noted that improving the quality and increasing the competitiveness of goods (processes, works, services) is possible only on the basis of standardization. It allows you to regulate product quality requirements, to more effectively solve specialization problems, to determine the most rational methods of production and processing of raw materials, to manage the quality of goods in production and the sphere of circulation. It has been proven that one of the important ways to improve the quality and increase the competitiveness of processes, works, and services is its certification. The types of certification are disclosed. The importance of certification as one of the important ways to improve the quality and increase the competitiveness of processes, works, and services is substantiated. As an element of the quality control system, certification is a rather expensive tool, but effective enough both for optimizing production and strengthening competitive positions on the market. To determine the expediency of the implementation, it is necessary to have up-to-date information on the level of quality of processes, products, services and marketing analysis of the market. It was determined that in the modern world, standards exist in a dynamic and changing environment. Thus, as an element of the quality control system, certification is a rather expensive tool, but effective enough both for optimizing production and strengthening competitive positions on the market.
