ISO 28004-4:2014为采用ISO 28000并希望将ISO 28001中确定的最佳实践纳入其国际供应链管理目标的组织提供了额外指导。ISO 28001中的最佳实践既有助于组织在国际供应链中建立和记录安全级别，也有助于在根据世界海关组织（WCO）标准框架设计的国家授权经济运营商（AEO）计划中进行验证。 ISO 28004-4:2014不是作为独立文件设计的。ISO 28004-1的主体就ISO 28000要求的输入、过程、输出和其他要素提供了重要指导。如果符合ISO 28001是管理目标，则ISO 28004-4:2014提供了关于实施ISO 28000的额外具体指导。

ISO 28004-4:2014 provides additional guidance for organizations adopting ISO 28000 that also wish to incorporate the Best Practices identified in ISO 28001 as a management objective on their international supply chains. The Best Practices in ISO 28001 both help organizations establish and document levels of security within an international supply chain and facilitate validation in national Authorized Economic Operator (AEO) programmes that are designed in accordance with the World Customs Organization (WCO) Framework of Standards. ISO 28004-4:2014 is not designed as a standalone document. The main body of ISO 28004-1 provides significant guidance pertaining to required inputs, processes, outputs and other elements required by ISO 28000. ISO 28004-4:2014 provides additional specific guidance on implementing ISO 28000 if compliance with ISO 28001 is a management objective.
