SI units are standardized among most countries which allows measurements done in one to be valid and reproducible in any other participating country. Not all countries use there units, most noticeably the USA and Great Britain.

The SI measurement system is used in science because it is based on a set of standardized units that are more coherent and easier to convert between.

Standardization in SI units also promotes consistency and accuracy in scientific communication and research.

I think you are referring to SI, the international standard of measurement units agreed upon by the international scientific community. SI does not stand for the metric system per se, but it is not surprising that all of the SI units are metric since the world's preference for the metric system is almost universal. Currently there are only three countries in which the metric system is not the standard system of measurements.
