ISO 17025 Consultants

Home

ISO/IEC 17025 is an internationally recognised standard which defines the general requirements for the competence to carry out test and calibration.
The standard can be used by all organisations performing tests/calibration and is often used to improve management of laboratories and the quality of the results. Clients using ISO 17025 certified laboratories have assurance of the laboratory working to an internationally recognised quality standard, which is externally audited on annual basis.
