NSRI Admin Section, now ISO-certified

The Administrative Section of the UP Diliman Natural Sciences Research Institute (NSRI) is now officially ISO 9001:2015-certified.

The certification, valid until April 2029, focuses on its efficient provision of administrative services.

According to an NSRI Facebook post, the ISO 9001:2015 certification is “a result of the collective efforts of the staff and management across three units within the NSRI Administrative Section: the Operations Support Unit, the Property and Procurement Unit, and the Facilities and Resources Unit. Each plays a vital role in ensuring that the section’s operations are efficient, effective, high-quality, and ultimately focused on prioritizing client satisfaction.”

NSRI Director Elmer S. Estacio accepted the Certificate of Registration from Pamela Maye Gunay, senior manager of business assurance of TÜV SÜD PSB Philippines, Inc. on April 8 at the NSRI Conference Room.
