Each NASPO member must maintain a set of consensus standards and operational protocols. This is to ensure that any brand owner, product manager, or customer needing graphic security products or services can ascertain that a NASPO member company is certified to operate within its classification. Members will be certified on an annual basis by NASPO qualified auditors, who will conduct on-site certification at the members' facilities.
The intent of NASPO goes beyond preserving the quality of the graphic security products industry; it also includes having its members recognized as a professional group of the highest integrity. What NASPO accomplishes is to join together individual qualified security product providers with a common goal; to provide brand owners, product managers and customers, an organizational structure and recognized level of security for the North American security products industry. This in turn creates an environment to lessen the economic and criminal impact of fraud at every level.
