History
The Nuclear Radiation Safety Center (NRSC) (Armenian: Միջուկային ճառագայթման անվտանգության կենտրոն) is a company that does scientific and technical researches. It provides proficiency and skills in the field of radiation and nuclear safety and security of nuclear facilities. The company was established in 2001. At first, it was a closed joint-stock company, but now, it is an organization that has 34 employees specialists in the field of nuclear and radiation safety, IT personnel, physicists, scientists and administrative and managerial staff. Their number depends on the contracts that NRSC signs because those contracts finance the company. The owner of the NRSC stocks is the Government of the Republic of Armenia.

Specialization
The most up-to-date methods are used to expand the activity of NRSC, thus guaranteeing local and international companies and individuals high-quality services. The NRSC is specialized in:
 * Making safety analyses and assessing nuclear installations
 * Assessing the risk of nuclear installations
 * Drafting ruling and control
 * Making guides on various aspects of nuclear and radiation safety
 * Developing the procedures of emergency responses
 * Developing scenarios for emergency exercises
 * Assessing protection
 * Assessing radiation safety
 * Doing radiometric and dosimetric measurements
 * Developing tools and databases, also IT support
 * Doing training for newcomers

Organization
The general responsibilities of Nuclear and Radioactive Safety Center (NRSC) are - The radiation safety and the nuclear safety. These two fields are also subdivided into a number of departments each concentrated on a certain responsibility within the NRSC. Currently the organization has about 35 employees, including physicists, engineers, IT personnel, along with the administrative and managerial staff.

Thermal hydraulic analysis and multiphysic simulation
One of the most important factors of NPP's nuclear security is the analysis of its thermal hydraulic behavior. The Hydraulic Analysis and Multiphysics Simulation Group (THG) is provided with contemporary equipment and has well-developed programs in order to implement such operations. The center uses a number of specific tools for analysis, codes such as RELAP5 and TRACE are used for the system's spectrum of accidents. The MELOR code is used for analyzing design-based accidents. COCOSYS code is used for the modeling of processes that are being done in the closed hermetical areas of the factory.

Quality management
NRSC is very attentive to the quality of their activities and is concentrated to follow the requirements of [|ISO 9001:2008] standard. The NRSC received its certification in december 2010, and re-certified in 2013. The quality management of the NRSC organizes the work as well as work related to documentations. It operates in conjunction with customer satisfaction, the specified standards, and company objectives. According to the certificate’s (ISO 9001:2008) requirements the following business processes were specified:Management Processes,Core Processes, and Supporting Processes.
