The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria has attained two internationally recognised certifications, ISO 9001:2015 for Quality Management Systems and ISO 14001:2015 for Environmental Management Systems, marking a significant milestone in its operational and institutional development.
The certifications were awarded by MSECB, Canada, following a comprehensive and independent audit of FAAN’s systems, processes and overall operations across its managed airports.
According to the Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Henry Agbebire, the achievement confirms that FAAN’s operational processes meet globally accepted standards for quality management, environmental responsibility and continuous improvement.
He said the certifications underscore the Authority’s commitment to delivering efficient, safe and customer-focused airport services, while also promoting sustainable environmental practices across all FAAN-managed airports nationwide.
The attainment of the ISO 9001:2015 certification reflects FAAN’s adherence to structured quality management principles aimed at improving service delivery, operational efficiency and customer satisfaction, while the ISO 14001:2015 certification highlights its compliance with internationally recognised environmental management standards designed to minimise environmental impact and promote sustainability.
Agbebire noted that the dual certifications further strengthen FAAN’s institutional credibility and position Nigeria’s airports to compete more effectively on the global aviation stage, particularly in areas of service quality, safety assurance and environmental stewardship.
“FAAN appreciates the continued support of its stakeholders and commends the dedication and professionalism of its workforce in achieving this important milestone. The Authority remains committed to upholding international best practices and continuously improving service delivery across the Nigerian aviation sector,” he stated.
