[GNBS IN FOCUS]
Kaieteur News – At a time when quality assurance and standardised practices are paramount for business success, the Guyana National Bureau of Standards (GNBS) continues to stand out as a beacon of support for local enterprises. At the heart of this endeavor lies the Bureau’s Business Development Department, dedicated to delivering standard solutions that uplift and empower businesses across the nation.
The GNBS’ Business Development Department serves as a vital resource hub, offering training and technical assistance services tailored to the unique needs of local businesses especially those looking to improve their competence in establishing, implementing and maintaining key management system standards and requirements.
From small and medium enterprises to large corporations, the department works tirelessly to provide guidance, assistance and expertise in navigating the complex landscape of standards and regulations.
One of the department’s primary objectives is to facilitate the adoption and implementation of internationally recognized standards within local businesses. For example, the popular ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management Systems Standard. Through professional training courses and technical assistance, businesses become equipped with the knowledge and tools necessary to meet and exceed industry standards, enhancing their competitiveness in local, regional and even international markets.
Furthermore, the Business Development Department plays a crucial role in fostering innovation and continuous improvement within the business community. By promoting a culture of quality and excellence, businesses are encouraged to strive for excellence in their products, services and processes. This not only enhances customer satisfaction but also drives overall business growth and sustainability.
Moreover, the department actively engages with stakeholders, including industry associations, government agencies, and educational institutions through its various training programmes to facilitate knowledge sharing on standards. Over the last five years, thousands of individuals including business personnel, regulatory staff and other professionals benefited from training courses offered. Aside from increasing stakeholder competency to implement the various standards, courses provided also provided many individuals with opportunities for employment and upward mobility.
No doubt, as Guyana continues to charter its path towards economic growth and development, the role of the GNBS’ Business Development Department continues to be increasingly vital for businesses.
The Bureau will continue to be dynamic, adding to the width and depth of its Technical Assistance programme and Training Courses as it works to deliver standard solutions to local businesses across the landscape of Guyana for years to come.
