By completing the improved quality infrastructure system, the Republic of Serbia will be several steps closer to EU in the Euro-integration process, which will have a positive impact on:
- Serbian businesses who will produce, import and export products without technical barriers;
- Consumers, to whom high-quality and safe products will be available;
- Government authorities that will conduct market surveillance over the implementation of technical regulations, on simpler and more efficient way.
By achieving these objectives Serbia will be in a position to become an active participant in the European and World market.
The preparation of the Strategy was implemented with the technical support of German development aid, through the GIZ ACCESS - Program of private sector development in Serbia, and in cooperation with all stakeholders, including quality infrastructure institutions (ISS, ATS, DMDM), conformity assessment bodies and representatives of businesses (PKS, associations and other sectorial associations) as users of testing and certification services.
