TAPA:2007 is a global management system certification standard operating in three regions; Americas, EMEA and Asia. There are two main standards; Freight Security Requirements (FSR) and Logistics Security Requirements (LSR). These schemes follow a two year certification period with a pre-audit and a certification audit similar to other management system certification schemes (ISO9000, ISO14000, OHSAS 18001…) but with the added element of an interim self-assessment audit.
By seeking certification to TAPA clients benefit from compliance to the wishes of TAPA members; Intel, Hewlett Packard, Sony etc to demonstrate that their distribution/warehousing facility meets the minimum security measures required to handle their goods. TAPA standards specify the minimum acceptable levels for security throughout the distribution supply chain and the methods to be used in maintaining that level of security. TAPA standards outline the process and specification to attain TAPA certification for facilities and transit operations.
