The Treasury’s Quality Management System and Information Security Management Systems Complies with Internationally Recognised Standards

 

After the successful recertification audit of the Treasury’s integrated management system, the Treasury’s Quality Management Systems and Information Security Management System have been assessed and recognised as compliant with the requirements of the international standards ISO 9001:2015 and  ISO 27001:2013.

 

The Quality and Information Security Management Systems were audited within an integrated management system and commended for their integrity and good management in particular.

The Treasury’s Quality Management System has been certified since 2006. Over these years, the Treasury has introduced and efficiently maintained process management and monitoring, planning and reaching of goals, monitoring of external and internal factor influences, risk management, organised communication processes, identification of stakeholders and inclusion of their requirements in the institution’s processes of operation, as well as employee professionalism, engagement and awareness of management decisions.

The auditors highlighted the professional project management, transparent process approach based on risk control, and clear and efficient organisation of information technology management as good practice. The methods used in improving client satisfaction and evaluating results were also viewed positively.

When certifying the compliance of the integrated management system with the requirements of both standards, the auditors concluded that the Treasury monitors the impact of external and internal factors, manages risks and conducts internal audits, and employees have a good understanding of the requirements and their contribution to quality and information security. The auditors found that processes such as strategic planning, user rights management and the development of new services were in line with best practice. The auditors especially emphasized that the internal working environment of the Treasury is motivating and engaging for employees, as well as praising the organizational culture of the Treasury.

The audits were performed on 15 and 16 February 2021 by BM Certification, an accredited certification body.

The Treasury’s operational strategy defines the following basic principles of quality and risk management system:
