Self Declaration to 17025

An ISO 1725 accreditation body must first assess the competency and compliance of the laboratory to the ISO/IEC 17025 standard requirements before a calibration or testing laboratory can declare that they are meeting the requirements of the ISO/IEC 17025 standard for services offered. After assessment, the accreditation body issues a Certificate of Accreditation for the accredited laboratory, which will be published on the accreditation body’s website. This includes the Scope of Accreditation – a list of specific calibration and measurement tests that the accreditation body has assessed the laboratory to be technically competent to perform against the ISO 17025 standard. This becomes the evidence for a declaration by a laboratory.
