ISO/IEC 17025 standard establishes a framework for the quality management of laboratories, including the management system, technical competence, and the validity of the results. The standard applies to all types of laboratories, regardless of the size or complexity of the operations.

The procedures outlined in ISO/IEC 17025 include several elements. The standard requires laboratories to establish and maintain a quality management system. You have to document a set of procedures for testing and calibration activities. The procedures should cover sample handling, test methods, equipment calibration, and reporting of results. The laboratory should also have a plan for ongoing training and development of its personnel, as well as appropriate documentation and records management systems.

The standard also includes requirements for the technical competence of laboratory personnel, including education, training, and experience. Laboratories must use validated test methods and calibrated equipment to ensure reliable results.
