ISO/IEC 17025:2017 · Testing & calibration laboratories
We take testing laboratories from gap assessment to a granted scope — documentation, measurement uncertainty, internal audit and assessment support, delivered end-to-end by a PECB-certified ISO/IEC 17025 Lead Assessor.
Disciplines covered
The person who writes your documentation is the person who trains your team and sits with you through the assessment.
Testing and calibration, across disciplines
Backed by 30+ years in engineering and metal industry
ISO/IEC 17025, measurement uncertainty and decision rules
Including Diesel Locomotive Works, Varanasi
Accreditation bodies worked with · credentials held
Eight workstreams that between them cover the whole route to accreditation. Take the full programme, or the one piece your laboratory is short on.
A clause-by-clause read of where the laboratory stands against ISO/IEC 17025:2017, turned into a dated plan with owners.
Quality manual, procedures, formats and records built around how the laboratory actually works — not a template drop.
Type A and Type B budgets, combined and expanded uncertainty, coverage factor, and reporting that survives technical assessment. Clause 7.6, done properly.
A full internal audit round and a rehearsal assessment run the way the accreditation body will run it, with nonconformities written the way assessors write them.
Proficiency testing and inter-laboratory comparison planned, scheduled and evaluated against ISO 13528:2022.
Pre-assessment preparation, on-site support during the assessment, and closure of nonconformities afterwards.
A retained arrangement for laboratories that need a technical voice on call between surveillance visits.
The 2023 edition of ISO/IEC 17043 requires testing of proficiency-testing items — homogeneity and stability included — to follow ISO/IEC 17025, and expects reference material producers to meet the relevant requirements of ISO 17034. Laboratories that get 17025 right have already paid for most of the next two.
ISO/IEC 17025:2017
General requirements for competence, impartiality and consistent operation. The base every other scope builds on.
ISO/IEC 17043:2023
The 2023 edition, aligned with ISO 13528:2022. PT item testing follows ISO/IEC 17025 — so the competence is already in place.
ISO 17034:2016
Confirmed current after its 2022 systematic review. Characterisation work leans on the same measurement and uncertainty discipline.

Work is delivered on site where it needs to be and live online where it does not, which is what makes a Pune-based practice workable for a laboratory in Dubai.
NABL accreditation work across private and government laboratories, including Indian Railways.
Consultancy delivered for laboratories in Dubai, Qatar and Kuwait, with EIAC and IAS exposure.
Next market on the roadmap for training and remote consultancy.
