| description | A quality system aims to organise activities (e.g. industrial productions, scientific research, animal breeding) in order to guarantee their control, to establish a dynamic of continuous improvement, to detect and correct their abnormalities. While in some institutions, the quality control is managed by specialists, each staff member will be brought, one day, to participate in the functioning of these systems. The “quality” concept has emerged in the US during its industrial revolution, particularly in car industry. Today, companies can certify their quality system according to international standards depending on industrial sectors they belong to (AAALAC, ISO9001, GLP). Specifically, institutions providing livestock for the study of non-human primates can find an interest in setting up a quality system to optimise their activities without necessarily attempting to apply for a certification. The Primate Center of Strasbourg University in France (CdP-UdS), has formalized its quality system according to ISO9001 standards for several activities (e.g. animal breeding and supply, supply of bio-products, experimental studies). The establishment of a quality system involves several steps: setting goals by sector and concerned individuals, scope of activities involved in the system, defining roles of individuals, establishing documentary tools. This article is an opportunity to share the highlights of our experience and to provide documentary tools focusing on critical points. This introduction to a quality system aims to raise awareness of the potential benefits of quality management directed towards a diverse audience of primatologists working in research laboratories, sanctuaries or zoos and wishing to initiate a quality process. |
