The procedure of ICR's board review includes ensuring the satisfaction of its customers by identifying their needs and expectations.

At the same time, ICR ensures that the interests it needs to protect are secured, including impartiality and the requirements made to ICR according to laws, rules, and standards, including ISO 14065, where relevant.
