ISO/IEC 17025 Laboratory Accreditation is the criteria for laboratories to demonstrate the technical competence to carry out specific test methods; generate valid calibration data, test results, and operate an effective quality system. ISO 17025 applies to any organization that wants to assure its customers of its precision, accuracy and repeatability of results.
ISO 17025 certified manufacturers demonstrate to their customers that the product quality laboratories optimally perform specified tests on the products supplied; laboratory personnel are trained and qualified to conduct these tests; instruments utilized are calibrated and serviced, results are properly reported, and that all of these processes have been confirmed by an independent auditor.
The A2LA Board of Directors has issued a policy requiring all laboratories to have an official copy of ISO/IEC 17025. Laboratories are being asked to confirm, in writing to A2LA certification to ISO/IEC 17025.
