ISO 28000 standards specifies the requirements for a supply chain security management system, linking security management to many other aspects of business management. For organisations working within, or relying on, the logistics industry, certification to the ISO 28000:2007 supply chain management standard provides a valuable framework. It will help minimise the risk of security incidents and so help provide problem-free 'just in time' delivery of goods and supplies.
