From the Director's Desk
The vision of the Swaziland Standards Authority (SWASA) is to be the recognised centre of excellence and preferred partner in the provision of standards-based solutions in Swaziland and beyond calls for a serious and honest introspection of self as an organisation. The recent strategic plan set to the period 2013 to 2016 revealed some gaps that need to be addressed as a matter of urgency. Such shortfalls, it is comforting to report, were not for the lack of conscientious effort from within the organisation but were realised to be due to an ever-changing and ever-increasing demand for better and more efficient products and services from SWASA by all stakeholders. Starting from the shareholders, to the Council and staff; and finally to the Swazi nation at large, each has a need that needs to be met through informed and calculated moves by SWASA. Entering into its third three-year strategic period in April 2013, it would seem, the organisation can no longer plead infancy.
