The State Statistical Committee

standard ISO 9001. In 2013 the external audit of the quality management system
was conducted in the State Statistical Committee, and in August of the same
year for the first time ISO 9001:2008 international certificate of conformity
was obtained in the direction of "Production and dissemination of official
statistical data". After a major change of the international standard in
2015, all documents of the quality management system were redesigned in
accordance with the requirements of the international standard ISO 9001:2015.
According to the results of certification audit conducted on March 09-10, 2017,
the apparatus of The State Statistical Committee and 13 local statistical
offices where QMS is applied, and then the apparatus of the State Statistics
Committee according to the results of recertification audit conducted on March
02-06, 2020 and another 17 local statistical offices where QMS is applied, then
according to the results of recertification audit conducted on February 13-17,
2023, the apparatus of the State Statistics Committee and 45 local statistical
offices where QMS "Production and dissemination of official statistical
data" is applied, have received the international certificate of
conformity 9001:2015 in the direction of "Production and dissemination of

Quality assessment
|
On the basis of the “Audit
Program” approved annually, internal audits are carried out in the departments
of the Office and in the local statistical bodies where the GIS is applied.
Audit teams are formed to conduct audits and an individual audit plan is
approved for each structural unit. The audit team conducts inspections in
accordance with the audit plan. Internal monitoring of quality aspects in the
State Statistics Committee is carried out in a centralized manner by the authorized
structural unit (Quality Management and Metadata Department) and an annual
“Analysis by Management” document is prepared and submitted to the management
based on the results of audits. The members of the audit team (auditors) are
instructed before each audit by the auditor general, as well as through
seminars organized at least once a year. The activity of the State Statistics
Committee is “Quality management systems. Requirements ”ISO 9001: 2015 is one
of the strongest strengths. Increased workload due to incomplete transition to
electronic documentation and parallel paperwork, late adaptation of staff
(employees) to the requirements of the new standards are the weakest
weaknesses.
