Publications
There are
various sources for purchasing copies of ANSI/ISO/IEC 17025 -- General
Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration
Laboratories (2nd Edition, 2005.) Replaces the 1999 edition.
The first edition
(1999) of this International Standard was produced as the result of
extensive experience in the implementation of ISO/IEC Guide 25 and EN
45001, both of which it replaced. It contained all of the requirements
that testing and calibration laboratories have to meet if they wish
to demonstrate that they operate a management system, are technically
competent, and are able to generate technically valid results.
The first edition
referred to ISO 9001:1994 and ISO 9002:1994. These standards have been
superseded by ISO 9001:2000, which made an alignment of ISO/IEC 17025
necessary. In this second edition, clauses have been amended or added
only when considered necessary in the light of ISO 9001:2000.
