Awareness, Implementation & Accreditation Methodology
ISO 17025 Implementation Steps
Pravin Mali
What is ISO 17025:2005 or NABL?
What is ISO/IEC 17025? ISO/IEC 17025 was first issued in 1999 by the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC). It is the single most important standard for calibration and testing laboratories around
the world. Laboratories that are accredited to this international standard have demonstrated
that they are technically competent and able to produce precise and accurate test and/or
calibration data.
ISO/IEC 17025:2005 / NABL specifies the general requirements for the competence to carry
out tests and/or calibrations, including sampling. It covers testing and calibration performed
using standard methods, non-standard methods, and laboratory-developed methods
Pravin Mali
What is Accreditation?
Accreditation is a voluntary, third party-reviewed process. As part of
accreditation, a laboratory's quality management system is thoroughly evaluated
on a regular basis to ensure continued technical competence and compliance
with ISO/IEC 17025. Laboratory accreditation can only be granted by an
accreditation body, In India there is a government body formed for
accreditation of the laboratory i.e. NABL (National Accreditation Board for
Testing and Calibration Laboratories )
Pravin Mali
Scope of ISO 17025
It is applicable to all organizations performing tests and/or calibrations. These
include, for example, first-, second- and third-party laboratories, and
laboratories where testing and/or calibration forms part of inspection and
product certification.
Pravin Mali
Application of ISO 17025
ISO/IEC 17025:2005 / NABL is for use by laboratories in developing their
management system for quality, administrative and technical operations.
Laboratory customers, regulatory authorities and accreditation bodies may also
use it in confirming or recognizing the competence of laboratories. ISO/IEC
17025:2005 / NABL is not intended to be used as the basis for certification of
laboratories.
Pravin Mali
Who should go for ISO 17025 ?
ISO/IEC 17025:2005 /NABL is applicable to all laboratories regardless of the
number of personnel or the extent of the scope of testing and/or calibration
activities. When a laboratory does not undertake one or more of the activities
covered by ISO/IEC 17025:2005 / NABL, such as sampling and the
design/development of new methods, the requirements of those clauses do
not apply.
Pravin Mali
Requirements of ISO 17025
The standard is divided into five major sections, as follows:
1. General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories
2. Normative references
3. Terms and definitions
4. Management requirements
5. Technical requirements
As is the case with other ISO standards, sections 1, 2 and 3 are for guidance
only, and not auditable.
