  1. Asia-Pacific Metrology Programme Results of DEC Needs Assessment Survey 2005* * NB: Syria and Indonesia’s responses were received at the 11th DEC meeting and incorporated after the meeting. 11th DEC Meeting, Jeju, Korea, September 2005

  2. Asia-Pacific Metrology Programme • 1. Sent to all APMP developing economy NMIs (including Associate Members) on 19 June 2005, with several follow-up reminders • 2. Responses received from:No response from: • Fiji 1. Bangladesh • India 2. China • Indonesia 3. Egypt • Malaysia 4. DPR Korea • Nepal 5. Mongolia • Pakistan 6. Russia • Philippines 7. South Africa • Sri Lanka • Syria • Thailand • Vietnam DEC Needs Assessment Survey

National measurement system status • 5. Other peak measurement agencies • 6. Legislation • 7. R&D activities • 8. Bi/multi-lateral projects • 9. Training provided by NMI Questions

  4. Asia-Pacific Metrology Programme • 10. Comparison participation • 11. Five major concerns • 12. Calibration needs • 13. Training needs • 14. Available professional training • 15. Income/Expenditure • 16. Strategic Plan – short/medium/long term Questions (ctd)

  5. Asia-Pacific Metrology Programme 1. (a) State of laboratory facilities Environmental control – poor (Nepal, Sri Lanka), moderate (Indonesia, Pakistan, Philippines, Vietnam) or good (remainder) Internet access – poor (Fiji, Nepal, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Syria, Thailand), moderate (Pakistan), good (India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam) QS documentation – poor (Fiji, Nepal, Sri Lanka) or good (remainder) CC/TC representation – poor (Fiji, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Syria, Vietnam) or good (remainder) Customer needs identified – mostly adequate (b) List of standards maintained Coverage – limited (Fiji, Nepal) or good (remainder) Clear need for more comparisons for DE NMIs (c) Staff numbers Need for more trained scientific staff in Fiji, Nepal & Sri Lanka Summary of issues raised by Survey responses

  6. Asia-Pacific Metrology Programme 2. Staff - general Reasonable amount of training being provided Need for succession-planning guidance 3. Global CIPM MRA participation Fiji, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Syria yet to participate Mechanisms to reduce costs and assist participation needed 4. National measurement system (NMS) status NMS agencies established in most DE NMIs except Fiji & Sri Lanka (limited in Syria) Summary of issues raised by Survey responses

  7. Asia-Pacific Metrology Programme 5. Other peak national measurement agencies Need for networking with other peak agencies 6. Legislation All except Pakistan have national measurement legislation 7. R&D activities Only significant R&D undertaken by India 8. Bi/multi-lateral projects Projects being undertaken by India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Philippines, Syria & Vietnam Summary of issues raised by Survey responses

  8. Asia-Pacific Metrology Programme 9. Training provided by the NMI No training provided by Nepal or Sri Lanka. Remainder provide some level of training to private/public customers & overseas NMIs 10. Comparison participation All except Nepal are participating, mostly in APMP comparisons Summary of issues raised by Survey responses

  9. Asia-Pacific Metrology Programme • 11. Five major concerns • Maintenance, upgrade, purchase of standards & equipment • Staff training – upgrade & re-skilling • Traceability – calibration services, development of capabilities • Laboratory & facilities upgrade • MRA participation, CMCs, laboratory accreditation, Quality Systems, comparisons • Awareness raising and coordination of National Measurement System • Legal metrology • Interaction with government & industry • Metrology in Chemistry • Participation internationally • R&D Summary of issues raised by Survey responses

  10. Asia-Pacific Metrology Programme 12. Calibration needs Broad range of areas identified 13. Training needs Broad range of areas identified 14. Available professional training Mostly provided by the NMI itself. Little external metrology training available. 15. Income/Expenditure (NB: Not all DEs responded) Fiji, Nepal, Philippines, Thailand totally government funded; Indonesia – 93.3%, Sri Lanka ~ 50%; Vietnam ~10-15% govt funded Very small %age of GNP spent on metrology Summary of issues raised by Survey responses

  11. Asia-Pacific Metrology Programme • 16. Strategic planning • Short term: • Equipment procurement • Training & HR development • MRA: CMCs, QS documentation, peer review/accreditation, more comparison participation • Improve existing & develop new calibration services • Develop infrastructure of calibration laboratories • Survey of calibration, HR and infrastructure needs • Medium term: • Equipment/laboratory/standards upgrade • Training & HR development • MRA: CMCs, peer review/accreditation, more comparison participation • Enhance capabilities, transfer low accuracy work • Increase international participation • Realise base units • Develop metrology legislation • Promotion to government (including website development) Summary of issues raised by Survey responses

  12. Asia-Pacific Metrology Programme • 16. Strategic planning • Long term: • Accreditation • Self-sufficiency in traceability, realise base units • Chemical (incl. CRMs), ionising radiation standards development • Laboratory upgrade • Develop new calibration services • R&D • Networking/coordination of metrology nationally Summary of issues raised by Survey responses
