World Standards Day | Standards Empower High-Quality Enterprise Development

　　October 14 this year marks the 54th World Standards Day. United Intelligence Certification Company deeply practices the concept of standardization through its products and business, helping enterprises enhance their awareness of standardization and effectively playing the guiding and supporting role of standardization in high-quality development.

　　The Origin of World Standards Day

　　On October 14, 1946, representatives from 25 countries including China, the UK, and the US gathered in London and decided to establish an international organization "aimed at promoting international coordination and unification of industrial standards" — ISO. Later, to commemorate the founding of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), October 14 was designated as "World Standards Day," which has become a festival for standardization workers worldwide.

　　The World's Development Cannot Do Without Standards

　　Standards are a universal industry language. The emergence of standards has greatly improved quality and social operational efficiency. The operation of various departments within a successful organization relies on the empowerment of standards. Standards are everywhere in modern life; they are the world's language of trust. The world's development cannot do without standards, and a better life cannot do without standards.

　　China attaches great importance to the development of standardization. In October 2021, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued the "National Standardization Development Outline," proposing that standards are the technical support for economic activities and social development and an important aspect of the country's fundamental system. Standardization plays a foundational and leading role in promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity, and the Party's comprehensive leadership over standardization work must be upheld.

　　In July 2022, the "Action Plan for Implementing the National Standardization Development Outline" was issued, clarifying the need to "better play the foundational and leading role of standardization in promoting the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity."

　　Official Poster for World Standards Day 2023 Released

　　On October 14, 2023, China's National Standardization Management Committee set this year's Chinese theme for World Standards Day as "Standards Shape a Better Life."

　　The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) have consecutively set the international theme for World Standards Day as "A Shared Vision for a Better World."

United Zhiyie Certification Company Supports High-Quality Development in Lingshi County, Shanxi Province, Empowering Industry Quality and Efficiency Improvement through Quality Enhancement

Keep moving forward, towards the future! United Intelligence Certification Company holds the third quarter departmental training meeting of 2023

The national zero-carbon factory policy is now in effect! United Zhiye provides precise support to help clients seize the initiative in their transformation.

Based on the strategic plan proposed by the headquarters, United Zhiye takes the upgrade of its product system as a key driver to build a three-tiered business structure—comprising “zero-carbon factory solutions + carbon-related products + integrated comprehensive services”—and thereby develop end-to-end service capabilities. The original enterprise’s integrated approach to low-carbon development has been upgraded to an integrated approach to zero-carbon development, which we regard as a milestone event. While the zero-carbon factory business focuses on deepening engagement in the manufacturing sector, the integrated approach to zero-carbon enterprise development transcends industry boundaries, extending its reach to the service sector and thus covering a broader scope of services.

For the first time, technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises have been included in the scope of tiered cultivation for high-quality SMEs.

Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the latest revised "Administrative Measures for the Tiered Cultivation of High-Quality Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises" (hereinafter referred to as the "Measures"), which have expanded the scope of cultivation by including technology-based SMEs in the tiered cultivation system for the first time. In the future, the tiered system for high-quality SMEs will encompass technology- and innovation-driven SMEs, specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative SMEs, and "Little Giant" enterprises that are specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative. The "Measures" will take effect from April 1, 2026.

Five departments jointly issued the "Guiding Opinions on Carrying Out the Construction of Zero-Carbon Factories."

Recently, five departments—the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, and the National Energy Administration—jointly issued the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Construction of Zero-Carbon Factories" (MIIT Joint [2026] No. 13, hereinafter referred to as the "Guiding Opinions"). These opinions aim to tap deeply into the potential for energy conservation and carbon reduction in the industrial and information technology sectors, drive carbon reduction and efficiency improvements in key industries, promote a green and low-carbon transformation, and foster the development of new-quality productive forces.
