Pan-African Quality Infrastructure
The cryptic abbreviation MSTQ, SQAM, or SMCA have gradually been substituted by the "quality infrastructure"-concept. During a long time ARSO, the African Organization for Standardization, founded in 1977, attempted to cover all of the components of a quality infrastructure. From 2007 on new African organizations have been created:
A PAQI Joint Committee Secretariat is hosted at the ARSO Central Secretariat in Nairobi, Kenya. PAQI Joint Committee Chairperson is Dr. Hermogène Nsengimana, ARSO Secretary General.
- AFRIMETS The Intra-Africa Metrology System, founded 2007
- AFSEC The African Electrotechnical Standardization Commission, founded 2008
- AFRAC The African Accrediatation Cooperation, founded 2010
