National Productivity Organization Of Iran(Npo) سازمان ملی بهرهوری ایران

The Islamic Republic of Iran became a member of the Asian Productivity Organization (APO) in 1965 despite lacking a productivity organization at the time. A productivity organization was established independently in 1371 (1992). In 1390 (2011), based on the 79th act of the Fifth Development Plan of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the National Iranian Productivity Organization (NPO) was established as a governmental institution under the affiliation of the Vice-presidency for Strategic Planning and Supervision. After the revival and re-organization of the Management and Planning Organization of Iran in 1393 (2014), NPO continued its mission as a subordinate of this Organization. Owing to the splitting of Management and Planning Organization of Iran, NPO has continued its mission as a subordinate of the Administrative and Recruitment Organization of Iran since 1395/7/27 (18 October 2016) by the Supreme Administrative Council’s decree. NPO is active as the secretariat of APO in Iran.
