BSI Product Services carries a host of UKAS (United Kindom Acceditation Service) accreditation for its current portfolio of services.
Assessment of laboratories
UKAS assesses laboratories against the requirements of the international standard ISO/IEC 17025, which replaces the previous standards ISO Guide 25 and EN 45001.
A laboratory seeking UKAS accreditation has to satisfy UKAS Assessment Managers and independent assessors that it is technically competent and operates a quality system to rigorous international standards.
Following successful assessment, UKAS will issue a schedule of accreditation to the laboratory, which will specify those calibrations or tests the laboratory has been accredited for, and for which it should issue certificates or reports bearing the UKAS testing or calibration mark.
It is in the interest of customers to specify clearly in their orders that a UKAS testing or calibration Report or Certificate is required for the work done by the UKAS accredited laboratories they are using.
