Standardization from the source: A lever for productivity and quality.

Practical implementation over the past period has shown that Program 1322 has supported many businesses in developing internal standards suitable to the specific characteristics of their products and production conditions. This is an important factor that helps businesses proactively control and continuously improve.

Many Vietnamese businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), still rely primarily on experience-based production, lacking specific standards for quality control and process optimization. Developing and implementing internal standards is a crucial step, clearly defining technical requirements, quality indicators, and internal control procedures. With established standards, businesses not only produce correctly but consistently, thereby creating a foundation for sustainable productivity growth.

Through the National Program to Support Businesses in Improving Productivity and Product Quality in the period 2021-2030 (Program 1322), many businesses have received support, ranging from awareness training and guidance on developing documentation to practical implementation.

Beyond simply implementing management systems such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 22000, etc., the program also places special emphasis on helping businesses develop their own internal standards tailored to the specific characteristics of their products and production conditions.

For example, Tong Tam Gia Lai Co., Ltd. - a company operating in the field of manufacturing hollow clay bricks. Thanks to the support of the program, the company has built and applied a quality management system according to ISO 9001:2015 standards, and at the same time developed a basic standard for the product "6-hole hollow clay brick".

The synchronized application of management systems and internal standards has enabled the company to achieve a comprehensive transformation. Production processes have been standardized, quality control procedures are clear, errors have been reduced, and efficiency has been improved. From a production model based on experience, the business has shifted to operating under a tightly managed system, based on standards and compliant with legal regulations. This is clear evidence of the effectiveness of combining standardization and productivity improvement.

Another example is Vietnam Enzyme Biotechnology Company, a manufacturer and distributor of detergent products. Given the nature of their industry, which directly impacts consumer health, the requirements for product quality and safety are always very high. By participating in Program 1322, the company received support in developing its own standards for dishwashing liquid.

The company has shifted from an experience-based approach to a standards-based production model, with tightly controlled quality indicators. The workforce has also received thorough training, enhancing their management and operational capabilities. Possessing a complete set of internal standards provides the company with a solid legal basis to market its products professionally and transparently, thereby improving its competitiveness.

Results from typical businesses show that supporting the development of basic standards is the "key" to helping businesses sustainably improve productivity and quality. When production activities are standardized, businesses can easily control risks, optimize resources, and continuously improve. This also forms the foundation for businesses to gradually access higher standards, expand markets, and participate more deeply in the supply chain.

Experts assess that, acting as a "support system" for businesses on their journey to improve productivity and quality, Program 1322 has been and continues to affirm its importance in socio-economic development. When each business proactively builds and operates according to standards, the economy will increasingly have more solid links, contributing to the formation of a modern, transparent, and sustainable production environment.
