The main areas of activity defined by the professional standard “Auditor of Quality Management Systems of Defense Industry Enterprises” will include:
- organizing and conducting audits of quality management systems for compliance with international ISO standards and NATO AQAP standards;
- analyzing risks associated with the life cycle support of defense products;

- preparing and ensuring the implementation of international agreements on cooperation in state quality assurance;
- adapting and implementing national and military standards based on NATO standards in the field of quality assurance.
Upon completion, the draft professional standards will be submitted for public discussion.
