Competence accreditation for testing and calibration laboratories.

Standards in laboratory accreditation

Prefer to just ask someone about laboratory accreditation rather than fill in a form?

What laboratory accreditation is worth to you

Results accepted elsewhere

Accredited results travel, which removes duplicate testing and its cost.

New client categories

Regulated customers can only use accredited laboratories.

Fewer disputes

Documented method and calibration settle challenges quickly.

Technical credibility

Accreditation is the clearest external signal of competence available.

Why expert advice is worth having

1

Integration saves real money

If laboratory accreditation sits alongside other standards you hold, running them as one system means one document set and one audit rather than paying for the same work several times over.

2

A date you can actually commit to

Knowing which parts of laboratory accreditation can be compressed and which cannot is the difference between meeting a tender deadline and explaining why you missed it.

3

Your team already has a day job

Running laboratory accreditation in house means taking your most capable people off revenue work for months. For most organisations that hidden cost is larger than the fee for doing it properly.

4

Surveillance never stops

A laboratory accreditation certificate is the start of a three year cycle, not the end of a project. Building for the surveillance audits from day one costs far less than rebuilding before each one.
