(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency) Amman, Feb. 24 (Petra) -- Marking a first for the Middle East and GCC region, the Royal Scientific Society (RSS) has received the most prestigious award given by the International Federation of Global Information and Communication Technology (IFGICT), designating it as a 'Green Business'.
This certification recognizes the achievements of key organisations in raising their ICT infrastructures to world-leading standards.
In a statement on Wednesday, the RSS, Jordan's foremost applied research institution, consultancy, and technical support service provider, was honoured with the IFGICT award in recognition of its ICT operations and infrastructure to support its mission to empower strategic sustainable development for Jordan and the region. The RSS is a recognized regional leader in research and technical services in science, technology and engineering.
The green business designation from the IFGICT, it said, is a vital acknowledgement of the RSS's proactive approach to enhancing and supporting local and global sustainable business and development. It underlines the organisation's commitment to socially and economically enlightened models for growth and prosperity, the statement added.
The Green Business Certificate of quality was awarded based on a comprehensive ICT audit that was carried out over the course of almost a year, during which time the IFGICT representative in Jordan worked closely with RSS staff.
With the full and constant support and collaboration of RSS management, the process of certification comprised of several phases, starting with internal documentation control, followed by an internal audit of the infrastructure of the RSS Data Centre and each department of the RSS ICT for Development Sector and, finally, the comprehensive training of relevant RSS staff.
Implementing the IFGICT ICT standards helps committed organizations to achieve coherent ICT quality management to enhance organizational development and greatly improve the quality of services and products provided for stakeholders and customers.
It also helps to maximise employee satisfaction and skills-development. The official ceremony to present the award from IFGICT will be held at the RSS campus in accordance with all necessary COVID-related safety measures.
