INTRODUCTION
With the aim of obtaining formal recognition of its technical expertise in performing calibrations and tests, your laboratory implements – voluntarily or at the request of its customers – a quality organization to ISO/CEI 17025.
Many questions arise:
What is ISO/CEI 17025?
Are ISO/CEI 17025 and ISO 9001 recognition certificates equivalent?
What are the managerial and technical requirements?
What are the future developments of ISO/CEI 17025?
