PTB is a signatory of the CIPM Mutual Recognition Arrangement which regulates the mutual recognition of national measurement standards and of calibration and measurement certificates issued by National Metrology Institutes. Among other requirements the CIPM-MRA calls for a quality management system fulfilling the requirements of ISO Guide 25 (now replaced by ISO/IEC 17025) to assure confidence in measurements. In compliance with these requirements PTB has modified the existing quality management system in compliance with ISO/IEC 17025. The new system is in effect since January 2001. It has been presented to the QS-forum of EUROMET on October 10, 2001 and has been accepted by the RMO. The quality management system of PTB not only covers the services provided to external and internal users but also aims at assuring quality also in the fields of research and publication of research results. The presentation will provide details on structure and operation of the quality management system at PTB and describe the experience that has been obtained so far. |
