Accreditation Scope: New ILAC Guide

ILAC has published the ILAC G18:04/2010 Guideline for the Formulation of Scopes of Accreditation for Laboratories.

The purpose of this publication is to provide information on how to define the scope of accreditation (fixed and flexible) and to identify criteria and ways of assessing the scope in order to allow an effective and harmonised application among Accreditation Bodies in relation to the relevant international Standards.
