ISO17025 – Laboratory management system

ISO17025 – Laboratory management system

ISO/IEC 17025:2017 is an ISO standard used by testing and calibration laboratories
to show competence in their ability to perform specific tests or calibrations.
Accreditation to the standard is a formal recognition of a demonstration of that
competence

ISO/IEC 17025 was initially published in 1999. A revision was added in 2005 and
the standard was recently updated in November 2017.
ISO/IEC 17025 enhances the acceptance of products across national borders. By
removing the need for additional calibration, testing, medical testing and/or
inspection of imports and exports, technical barriers to trade are reduced. In this
way, the free-trade goal of a β€˜product tested or calibrated once and accepted
everywhere’ can be realized.
Who should attend?
Managers and staff from different departments
