  8. The More Marks, the Better • COMMON PERCEPTION & SCENARIO • In Business, Perception Is Reality & Make no mistake about it • In business, we listen, digest and respond to feedback from clients and voices of the market Moody Training Malaysia

  9. IAF / User Advisory Committee • User Advisory Committee Doc. UAC 018, March 2010 • One of the General Expectations: to discourage multiple accreditation • Besides, UAC role is to strategize to ensure accredited certification fulfilling end-user expectations Moody Training Malaysia

  10. THE “PRO” 1- 3 Competitiveness thro’ Visibility • Impress potential customers thro’ publicity of achievement with more marks and logos • Project an enhanced and better recognition even with the use of local auditor resource and a local AB • Addressed current specified requirement of the Principal or the parent company HQ overseas or a possible future demand from targeted overseas market Moody Training Malaysia

  11. THE “PRO” 4- 8 For the Certificated Suppliers and their clients • Perception of multiple recognition by many countries – good for global business expansion • Perception of having met multiple compliances of “different” QMS to meet international client needs • Enhanced acceptance by customers against competitors in a scenario where all being equal • Serves as means to attract new business and new market prospects Moody Training Malaysia

  12. THE “PRO” 9- 11 For the Certificated Suppliers and their clients • Project good image that exhibit capability & professionalism that gained overseas recognition • May facilitate breakthrough of Malaysian entrepreneurs in international market • Impressed customers and potential customers and their subsequent loyalty provided that cost of product / service remains competitive and attractive Moody Training Malaysia

  13. THE “PRO” 12- 15 For the Certificated Suppliers and their clients • For developing economies, it supports, enhances and facilitating export • Put in place to meet regulatory requirement, should regulations in the importing country specified a particular AB mark or certificate • Put in place a forward plan for business to business arrangement / preference for a particular AB mark Moody Training Malaysia

  14. THE “CON” 1- 3 For the Certificated Suppliers with multiple marks • Higher cost as compared to one with a single AB mark • In isolated cases, overseas auditors may have to be “imported” – further escalate the cost • Cost associated with printing of multiple marks and changes, if any Moody Training Malaysia

  15. General Conclusion • From the above, it would seem that more “Pros” than “Cons” would likely point to more competitive and profitable in the case of multiple marks • Business environment and factors affecting profitability varies from industry to industry and differs in different times of the world economy • Research Papers on this subject if conducted by different Groups would not provide the same conclusion either. Moody Training Malaysia

  16. My Conclusion • My personal view is that : • It is left to the gut feeling of the businessmen themselves to decide whether or not his business would need one or more Accreditation mark to propel and to maintain their particular type of businesses • In Business, perception could be the REALTY and make no mistake about it.
