Conformance to ISO 9000 by U.S. companies was led by the chemical industry as a result of the importance of international trade to chemical companies. An ISO 9000 certification was once thought to be necessary for access to the European market (52). At the beginning of 1994, almost 20% of U.S. certifications went to chemical companies. The emphasis on registration continues at a fast pace, as certification is considered an important suppher selection criterion by U.S. chemical companies.

The 8(b) inventory accumulation was the next major activity. For a decentralized company like Monsanto or, for that matter, most major chemical companies, the experience of centralized information gathering was a new experience. However, we believe that the experience not only was novel, but proved to be beneficial from several points of view. First of all, it enabled us to evolve a network of expertise. Second it gave us a central data-base on which to build other information important from a corporate point of view, and permit a one-time expense for developing a system. Third, it revealed that we needed to improve our data files in some areas. And, fourth, it gave our central staff departments some surprises as to substance locations. We used the Chemical Abstract Service Registry Profile capabilities to gather all the known synonyms and added our internal numeric and common identifiers to access the file via dozens of possible names or numbers. 

Many U.S. companies are supporting the implementation of hydrogen. They can compete effectively on an international basis and build a real economic force. A key part of our security is to build equipment that can be exported to our allies. Our industrial base can then enjoy access to world markets. 

These regulations are a major development in our effort to ensure that South Africans have access to affordable, good quality medicine. You will recall that when this Act was passed in 1997, it was strongly opposed by pharmaceutical companies. It took these companies almost four years to withdraw their court action in 2001 and finally accept the legitimacy of our efforts and genuineness of our respect for the international trade treaties that we are party to.
