ISO/IEC 17025 is an international standard that specifies the general requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories. Laboratories use this standard to develop their management system for quality, administrative, and technical operations. Many countries mandate that laboratories hold this accreditation to be recognised as technically competent. In such regions, suppliers and regulatory authorities often reject test or calibration results from laboratories that are not accredited under ISO/IEC 17025, underscoring the importance of this standard in maintaining the credibility and acceptance of laboratory results.
For organisations, ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation provides multiple benefits. It demonstrates the laboratory’s competence and ability to produce reliable results, which not only assures clients and regulatory bodies but also offers a competitive advantage. Accredited labs are better positioned to secure contracts and business opportunities that specify or require compliance with this standard, making accreditation a valuable asset for expanding market access.
