The Zero Defect Zero Effect (ZED) Certification is a Government of India initiative aimed at empowering MSMEs to enhance their competitiveness, sustainability, and global reach. By adopting ZED practices, MSMEs can significantly reduce waste, improve productivity, save energy, and embrace environmentally conscious operations.

Beyond certification, ZED provides a comprehensive framework of assessment, guidance, and technological intervention to strengthen the MSME ecosystem and drive their growth.
