  1. ISO/IEC 17025 Accreditation

  2. What is ISO/IEC 17025? The ISO 17025 standard specifies the general requirement for the ability to hold out tests and calibration as well as sampling. The check and calibration ways performed area unit categorized as standard, non-standard and laboratory developed. It covers 1st, second and third party laboratories wherever testing and calibration forms a part of scrutiny and products certification. This international ISO 17025 standard is applicable to all or any laboratories in spite of the amount of personnel or the extend of the scope of testing and calibration activities. it's employed by laboratories to develop their management system for quality, body and technical operations. www.isoiec17025certification.com

  3. What is Accreditation? Accreditation could be a formal, third party recognition of competency to perform specific tasks. It provides a method to spot a established, competent authority so the choice of a laboratory, review or certification body is associate enlightened alternative. ISO 17025 accreditation suggests that the authority will demonstrate to its client that it's been winning at meeting the wants of international accreditation standards. Usually the explanation for obtaining one thing severally evaluated is to verify it meets specific needs so as to scale back risks.

  4. Aim of ISO/IEC 17025 • Provide a basis for use by accreditation bodies in assessing the competence of laboratories. • Establish general requirements for demonstrating lab compliance to perform specific tests or calibrations. • Assist in the development and implementation of a lab's quality system. www.isoiec17025certification.com

  5. Steps of ISO 17025 Accreditation • File Application • Receive Quote • Enter Contract • Prepare for Accreditation • Document Review • Preliminary Assessment • Opening Meeting • Accreditation Assessment • Closing Meeting • Corrective Action • Executive Committee's Decision • Executive Committee's Decision • Surveillance Assessments www.isoiec17025certification.com

  6. Elements of ISO/IEC 17025 • Scope: The area of the lab being evaluated that will represent the lab as a whole (i.e. mechanical equipment, environmental conditions) • Normative References: Documents that give the most recent information about every area of the process and equipment standards. • Terms and Definitions: The labeling of all equipment, instruments, work stations, employees, and defining instructions, protocol, procedure, and safety measures. • Management Requirements:  document control, service to clients, contract reviews, preventative actions, internal audits, management reviews, etc. • Technical Requirements:  Safe working conditions, functional equipment, proper calibration of devices, handling of tests and substances, result reporting etc. www.isoiec17025certification.com

  7. What is ISO/IEC 17025 Management Requirements • Organization • Management System • Document control • Review of requests, tenders and contracts • Subcontracting of tests and calibrations • Purchasing services and supplies • Service to Customer • Complaints • Control of non-conforming testing/ calibration • Improvement • Corrective actions • Preventive actions • Control of records • Internal audits • Management reviews www.isoiec17025certification.com

  8. Benefits of ISO/IEC 17025 • Increase in productivity • Rework and retesting reduction • Reduced instrument repairs and defect levels • Due to establishment of control chart and regular monitoring test and instrument capability is improved in turn benefited in Higher yield • Improvement in knowledge level and multi skirling www.isoiec17025certification.com

  9. What to Document for ISO/IEC 17025 Accreditation ISO/IEC 17025 documents used to designed and developing testing and calibration laboratory. The laboratory management system needs standard documents that cover all requirements of ISO/IEC 17025:2005 for quick accreditation. Following are the key document provided by ISO 17025 consultant. • Manual • Procedures • Standard Operating Procedures • Exhibits • Blank and Filled forms • Audit checklist www.isoiec17025certification.com
