ACASA is the governing authority for the development and maintenance of national Industry Sector Standards (ISS). These standards ensure that each sector within the logistics and transport industry operates to a consistent, transparent, and measurable level of compliance and capability.

Our Approach
Each ISS defines the minimum and variable compliance requirements specific to a given sector or role, ensuring flexibility without compromising safety or accountability. The ACASA ISS model ensures that standards are meaningful — they are practical, achievable, and capable of being verified through performance-based assessment rather than administrative box-ticking.

Key Objectives

• Establish nationally consistent benchmarks across all industry sectors

• Define mandatory and variable compliance elements tailored to operational needs

• Support organisations in demonstrating competence, accountability, and improvement
