MiQ’s core principles include:
- Transparent, robust standards: the MiQ Standard is published on the MiQ website.
- Third-party audit: impartial auditors or verifiers are a critical ingredient to any certification program.
- Scalable and marketable: MiQ’s Certification is traceable using the MiQ Digital Registry. It is also scalable due to being technology-agnostic and allowing a range of auditors.
- Prevents cherry-picking: MiQ is encouraging all operators undergoing certification to eventually expand certification to all their assets.
