During the workshop, Mr. Al Saadi highlighted the amendments in the quality management system (ISO 9001:2015) and the transition to this new system.
Engineer Omar Abu Omar, COO at Tasneef, during the workshop talked about the services Tasneef provides and the significance the society acquired as the only Arab classification society which is gaining importance due to its geographical location mediating the continents of the world allowing it to become an international destination for governments, companies or ship-owners looking for business assurance services. During the presentation Abu Omar talked about the significance of the Arab region in terms of business assurance where the world’s most important marine straits are located, making it a key and central navigational channel for all counties around the world ultimately strengthening the region’s role in the acquisition of a substantial share of the business assurance market.
Abu Omar said “we at Tasneef through this workshop with our partners in the Jordanian Academy for Maritime Studies, are seeking to open new horizons for collaboration and promoting joint activities reaching an integrated, active, strategic partnership capable of drawing a clear picture for the future of business assurance in the Arab region”. Abu Omar added “since the 90’s, the Arab league has been keen on establishing an Arab classification society but, the high costs of such a project stood in the way of turning this dream into a reality, today after the UAE took the initiative to achieve this Arab dream, the success opportunities for Tasneef in delivering business assurance services in accordance with international standards while having a competitive edge will consolidate the society’s position regionally and internationally. As part of our move to develop development outputs in this sector, this workshop comes to confirm our determination to walk in the direction of achieving joint Arab strategic objectives”.
