ISO 17025

ISO/IEC 17025:2017 specifies the general requirements which are required for the competence to carry out test/and or calibrations, including sampling that play a vital role in trade, product development, manufacturing, and in protection of the consumer. Originally known as ISO/IEC Guide 25, ISO/IEC 17025 was initially issued by the International Organization of Standardization in 1999. In most major countries, ISO/IEC 17025 Mumbai is the standard for which most labs hold accreditation in order to be deemed technically competent. All measurements and decisions should be accurate, repeatable, verifiable, cost-effective, timely, and believable measurements, opinions, and recommendations, and ISO 17025 helps assure this happens the first time and all the other time as well.

Who is it for?

It is applicable to all the laboratories regardless of the number of personnel or the extent of the scope of testing and/or calibration activities, and this includes first, second and third party laboratories. It benefits business, government and society at large. The competence in laboratories is frequently needed by businesses at the time of testing new products, or ensuring that finished products meets the standard which is acceptable for selling the product. It is sold by government regulators and trade officials that require assurance about domestic or imported products before market placement, ensuring quality and reliability of testing, and analysis related to the environmental, health or safety hazards.
