Why does ROMIL not have ISO Guide 34 and is ROMIL seeking to achieve ISO Guide 34 accreditation for PrimAg reference materials?
When we introduced our range of PrimAg CRM’s (in 2002) the only accreditation option available to us was ISO 17025 as a calibration laboratory. We were the first organisation worldwide to achieve such accreditation and remained so for a numbers of years. However, accreditation authorities felt that something else was required for reference material producers and started accrediting such organisations to ISO Guide 34. This despite the fact that Guide 34 is not an international standard and that there are no multi-lateral agreements (MLA) in place for it. Nevertheless, Guide 34 has now become the ‘fashion item’ for the reference material community and as a result steps are being brought forward to establish it as a proper international standard in it’s own right – ISO 17034. Therefore, in order to continue to provide our customers with a top range of reference materials, both in their performance and for ease of administration within current reference material practices, we have decided
