Why A2LA Accreditation Matters?
A2LA accreditation provides confidence in the measurement results. Laboratory accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025 covers the same quality management system principles that are addressed in ISO 9001 registration.
Specialist technical assessors conduct a thorough evaluation of all factors in a lab that affect the production of [testing or calibration] data.
The criteria are based on the internationally accepted standard ISO/IEC 17025 (which is used for the evaluation of laboratories throughout the world) and other technical program requirements developed with regulators and specifiers.
