16. User feedback User survey Link sent with order and then sent again when billing Answer rate: 13% (9,4% in 2019) Customers are globally satisfied Knowledge through publications Feedback via website - Customers interrested in phytoplanckton course (cultivation and taxonomy) - Remarks about low culture concentration
17. Quality Management System Under ISO 9001: 2015 regulation Framework of EMBRC-France Certification postponed to 2021 EBB Workshop (virtual) 1,5 days /4 laboratories: Introducing a common quality management system - Define a set minimum set of QM requirements for culture collections and biobanks belonging to EBB. - Need and advantages of advancing QMS - Agree on a number or steps for culture collections to implement that set of requirements 7 anomalies Customs retention Lighting system
