Notes: IRIS (International Railway Industry Standard) was formulated by the UNIFE and officially released on May 18, 2005, and it was updated to the ISO/TS22163 in May 2017. On the basis of the ISO 9001 quality control system, IRIS has introduced special requirements for railway products in terms of safety, reliability and quality, while combining industry-leading management methods and concepts. Based on its seven key principles of quality control, the system reflects the concept of product management across the whole life cycle, considering the entire supply chain, with an aim to guaranteeing customer satisfaction at a reasonable cost.

The IRIS Certification quality performance is divided into three levels: Bronze (passed and obtained), Silver and Gold. On May 1, 2020, the certification rules issued by the IMC outlined the newest standards for silver level certification, thus kicking off the approval process.

According to data taken from the IRIS website, as of October 2020, among the 1,300+ enterprises certified by IRIS in China, more than 50 have been rated at or above the silver level, with one rated at the gold level.
