Title: Decision Rules Related to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Description: The new revision of ISO/IEC 17025 produced in 2017 has new requirements for laboratories when customers ask for statements of conformity associated with their calibration (e.g. pass/fail, in-tolerance/out of tolerance). These new requirements include a conversation between the customer and the laboratory at contract review to ensure that the specification of the requirements is well defined and that a decision rule on how the laboratory makes a statement of conformity is selected. Different decision rules have varying levels of risk that the laboratory can make an incorrect decision for the customer, calling a good instrument bad or a bad instrument good. Statements of conformity and decision rules are two issues that have become a topic of discussion since the revision of the ISO/IEC 17025 standard. The new requirements have become more demanding, assessors are writing deficiencies, and people have a lot of questions about how to comply. – PowerPoint PPT presentation
