The Elazığ Chamber of Commerce and Industry, which continues its work without interruption to reach the Class A target in the TOBB Accreditation system, carried out a Benchmarking study with the Sivas Chamber of Commerce and Industry via the Zoom Platform within the scope of its preparations, with the participation of the relevant professionals. In the benchmarking, assessments were made of all processes and the quality management system, especially the Good Practices implemented by both Chambers.

Preparations continue at an intense pace…

The benchmarking study between Elazığ CCI and Sivas CCI held via the zoom platform was attended by Elazığ CCI Secretary General M.Mehmet Karabulut, Press, Public Relations and Protocol Manager Etem Yalın, Accreditation Officer M.Mücahit Uçar, Quality Management Officer Fatmagül Günaydın, HR Officer Mervegül Özlü, Sivas CCI Secretary General Erol Gencer, Deputy Secretary General Serhat Ay, Accreditation Officer Banu Konak and Foreign Trade Specialist Sevinç Yıldırımlı.

In his assessment at the meeting, Elazığ CCI Secretary General M.Mehmet Karabulut stated that the Elazığ CCI Board of Directors, Assembly, Professional Committees and all Chamber units were making very self-sacrificing efforts towards rising to Class A in Accreditation, and said: “With these efforts and the noticeable rise in service quality, our Chamber rose from Class C to Class B. Our goal is to rise to Class A. We manage our processes by designing our Chamber's Strategic Plan and goals accordingly. When you examine our Good Practices Report, consisting of 42 headings, you too will see how valuable each heading is for both our city and our members. Within the scope of these efforts, while increasing the institutional capacity of our Chamber on the one hand, we are producing very valuable services for both our members and our province on the other. Our Board of Directors fully supports and believes in the system. As our President states on every platform, we are not waging this struggle just to have a certificate hanging on the wall. From bringing the province's resources into the economy, to acting jointly with all stakeholders, to contributing to the development of members within sustainable trade, we primarily aim for a permanent and sustainable institutionalisation in line with the historical mission of our Chamber, whose history approaches 150 years. We have made very significant progress in this direction. Together with all our professionals, we are continuing these studies with many chambers in our region and in other parts of our country. What we particularly emphasise is being able to benefit from examples of good practice. By sharing our Good Practices Publication, which we as a Chamber have compiled into a report, we wish for our other Chambers to benefit from these experiences as well. We believe that these meetings add great value to the Chambers. With these thoughts, I thank all participants and hope that our meeting will be beneficial to both of our Chambers.”
