The British Standards Institution (BSI) is the National Standards Body representing the interests of the UK across all of the European and international standards organizations and through their committees. Independent of government, BSI is globally recognized as an impartial body serving both the private and public sectors. BSI works with manufacturing and service industries, businesses, governments and consumers to facilitate the production of British, European (including EU harmonized standards), and international standards.
British Standards have been adopted by many other countries and international standards bodies and are especially vital to exporters and importers in their engineering, design, procurement, manufacturing, and quality assurance departments. There are currently more than 21,000 British Standards including the management systems series.
