Certified Membership: CSIA’s Distinction of Excellence
CSIA embarked on a program in early 1995 to provide Business Best Practices & Benchmarks. It was developed by control systems integrators and for control system integrators for the express purpose of raising the professionalism of the CSI industry through self improvement. The current collection of Best Practices & Benchmarks represents the third major revision since this program was started. Feedback from many member companies as well as clients from a broad range of industries has contributed enormously to the content of this document.
The third and most recent release adds System Development Lifecycle, Supporting Activities, adjusts scope of Project Management and significantly updates Human Resource Management. The Best Practices Committee is confident that these revised Best Practices & Benchmarks will raise the bar in our industry and will help the CSIA membership fulfill its mission: to improve the business skills of its member companies and their executive management.
