IMSM WHY ISO 17025 IS ESSENTIAL FOR THE FASTENER INDUSTRY from page 72
ISO 17025 provides a framework for quality
management systems that ensures that testing and
calibration are conducted to a consistent level of
quality, providing reliable and accurate results. Fastener
manufacturers can benefit from ISO 17025 certification
by increasing efficiency, reducing costs, and providing a
competitive advantage. Customers can have confidence in
the fasteners they are purchasing, knowing that they have
been tested and calibrated to a consistent level of quality,
providing reliable and accurate results.
ISO/IEC 17025 is very technical, so achieving ISO
17025 certification can feel overwhelming; this is why
many testing and calibration laboratories choose to use the
expertise of an ISO consultant – someone who will support
and guide you through the implementation process. IMSM’s
experienced consultants will take the lead in auditing your
business, helping you use the results to improve your
testing and calibration processes.
