To establish this equivalence, laboratories must regularly take part in measurement comparisons. In order to extend the practice of international comparisons, to substantiate their results with comprehensive documentation, and to provide objective evidence on which to base declarations of equivalence, the CIPM created a Mutual Recognition Arrangement, the CIPM MRA, in 1999.
The CIPM MRA is the structure enabling national metrology institutes...
