Integrated Management System (IMS)

EUSPA (formerly the GSA) developed and implemented an Integrated Management System (IMS) that is documented and applied to all Agency activities. The IMS was developed to consistently achieve Agency objectives and to ensure its operations are in line with the expectations of its key stakeholders. The IMS also includes processes for regularly improving the system and for providing continual assurance of conformity to applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.

The IMS is applicable to all EUSPA staff located both at its headquarters (Prague, Czech Republic) and all other EUSPA locations, including Saint-Germain-en-Laye and Toulouse (France), Noordwijk (The Netherlands), Torrejon de Ardoz (Spain) and Brussels (Belgium).

These certifications, along with the EGNOS Safety Management System (SMS) and the European Cooperation for Space Standardisation (ECSS) standards for Galileo, are all managed via a coordinated IMS. This IMS provides all EUSPA staff with documented working practices and a framework for growth that ensures compliance with European Commission Internal Control Standards. The IMS also helps improve EUSPA’s internal efficiency and risk management.

ISO 9001:2015 Certification

EUSPA (formerly the GSA) has been ISO 9001:2015 certified for all its activities since December 2017.

This certification represents a significant collective effort across EUSPA to establish an Integrated Management System (IMS) and to define specific quality processes. It also represents a continued global commitment to deliver more effective and efficient services that better respond to the needs of EGNOS and Galileo end users.

The certification lays a solid foundation for building towards additional certifications. EUSPA will continue to develop its IMS and intends to apply the quality management approach to deliver continual improvement in both performance and services as it seeks to satisfy customers and key stakeholders.

What is ISO and ISO 9001?

The International Standards Organisation (ISO) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is carried out through ISO technical committees, in liaison with international organisations and governmental and non-governmental bodies. 

ISO 9001 specifies the requirements for a QMS that an organisation may use for internal application, certification or contractual purposes.
