Usage Guidance
-
This metric is intended to capture third-party certifications that the organization holds as of the end of the reporting period and that are related to business process and practice. For example, organizations providing healthcare delivery services might hold SafeCare certification, ISO 900 certification, and government accreditation. Organizations wishing to report product-level certifications should report on Product/Service Certifications (PD2756).
-
Since certifications vary by sector (for example, construction, textiles or manufacturing, agribusiness, supply chain development), organizations should disclose the type of certification held, as well as whether the certification is issued by an internationally recognized certifying authority and, if so, which one.
