Two exemplary units that received support are An Nhien Agricultural and Service Cooperative (fermented banana juice) and Agri Food Co., Ltd. (red artichoke powder). Agri Food was guided in developing and issuing its own internal standard (TCCS) 01:2025\/AGRIFOOD, standardizing the entire production process from raw materials to finished products, completing the conformity declaration dossier, and selecting a suitable certification body. The company also implemented quality awareness training for its staff, improved testing procedures, and conducted internal assessments, laying the groundwork for future international certifications such as ISO 22000 or HACCP.<\/span><\/p>\n In addition, An Nhien Cooperative \u2013 a unit specializing in preliminary processing and processing of agricultural products in Kong Chro district \u2013 also received advice on the process of declaring product standards, training on food safety, and gradually building an internal control system. Standardization helps the cooperative improve its traceability and better meet the requirements when participating in the clean agricultural supply chain.<\/span><\/p>\n Project expert conducting a survey at Agri Food.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n Chemical and Fertilizer Industry: Strengthening Legal Framework, Safety Control, and Elevating Brand Image<\/b><\/p>\n Among the chemical and fertilizer manufacturing businesses, Vietnam Enzyme Biotechnology Co., Ltd. and Phu Loi Organic Cooperative were selected as pilot projects. For their dishwashing liquid product, Vietnam Enzyme Biotechnology Co., Ltd. received support in developing its internal quality control standards (TCCS) based on TCVN 6971:2001 and relevant legal regulations on chemicals, food safety, and product labeling. This process included surveying the current situation, providing guidance on testing, establishing quality standards, and issuing internal TCCS publication decisions. This is a crucial foundation for the company to control quality, ensure product transparency, and guarantee legal market circulation.<\/span><\/p>\n Meanwhile, Phu Loi Organic Cooperative \u2013 a producer of organic fertilizers from agricultural by-products \u2013 has received consulting services to establish an ISO 9001:2015 quality management system, update its technical standards to comply with QCVN 01-189:2019\/BNNPTNT, and receive guidance on declaring conformity and selecting a certification body. This standardization not only helps the cooperative meet legal requirements but also creates a competitive advantage thanks to the clarity of product quality and origin, opening up opportunities for deeper participation in the ecological agricultural supply chain.<\/span><\/p>\n Project expert assessing the application of company standards (TCCS) at Ph\u00fa L\u1ee3i<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n Standardizing standards \u2013 a strategic move for local businesses.<\/b><\/p>\n The initial success from the six pilot models shows that applying technical standards and regulations is not only suitable for large enterprises, but also entirely feasible for small businesses and cooperatives if there is a clear roadmap and proper consultation.

With the goal of supporting local businesses in gradually improving productivity, quality, and market integration capabilities, the Gia Lai Provincial Department of Science and Technology has implemented a provincial-level science and technology project: \u201cBuilding a pilot model for improving productivity and quality based on the application of productivity improvement systems, standards, tools, and scientific, technological, and innovative solutions for businesses in Gia Lai province,\u201d led by STI Vietnam Co., Ltd. The project includes a pilot program supporting the application of technical standards and regulations at six businesses operating in the fields of agriculture, food, chemicals, and construction materials. Each participating unit received thorough surveys, systematic consultations, and practical training to ensure that the standardization process is consistent with actual conditions and current legal requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n Standardization in the construction materials sector: the foundation for consistent quality and long-term development.<\/b><\/p>\n In the construction materials manufacturing sector, two companies, Tong Tam Gia Lai Co., Ltd. (tunnel-fired bricks) and Chien Thang Joint Stock Company (ready-mix concrete production), received support in applying technical standards to improve their quality management capabilities. Specifically, Chien Thang Joint Stock Company received consultancy on applying ISO 9001:2015, establishing processes for controlling raw materials, mix design, testing, and storing concrete product samples. The standardized management system helps the company ensure consistent product quality, meeting the stringent technical requirements of the construction market and large-scale infrastructure projects. Meanwhile, Tong Tam Company initially received guidance on developing a quality control process for its fired bricks, laying the foundation for issuing its own standards and eventually implementing a comprehensive quality assurance system in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/stivina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/15.png\" "\\"15\\"")
