🔍 Let's explore the differences between API Q1 QMS and API Q2! 📊 1️⃣ API Q1 QMS: This standard is focused on quality management systems for organizations in the oil and gas industry. It emphasizes risk management, contingency planning, and customer satisfaction. API Q1 QMS is designed to help companies achieve operational excellence and meet industry-specific requirements. 2️⃣ API Q2: In contrast, API Q2 focuses on quality management for service providers in the upstream sector of the oil and natural gas industry.
