Your Laboratory or Company required ISO 17025 Accreditation Help?
Step 1: Gap Analysis
The next step in getting the Laboratory Quality Management System (LQMS) accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 is to conduct a “Gap Analysis”.
This is an evaluation of current processes to see what you have in place that already meets the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025:2017, and what you will need to do to meet the remainingrequirements.
Are you Looking ISO 17025 Consultants?
In most cases, your company’s quality department or a consulting firm such as CAL LAB ACCESS will come to all departments and asking how you do things. They will want to see procedures and records, so they can evaluate the current method of doing things against the requirements of the standard. This information will help them plan ISO/IEC 17025:2017 Project.
Introducing Quality Policy
Top Management will develop a Quality Policy to demonstrate their commitment and leadership with respect to the Laboratory Quality Management System. How does your work contribute to meeting company’s Quality policy?
Each and every individual has an impact on the performance of the laboratory.
After the Gap Analysis…
When we (CLA) have completed the Gap Analysis, your quality team and CLA will put together a plan to address the requirements of the ISO/IEC 17025:2017standard. This plan will include outlining new ways of doing things and developing documented information for the laboratory processes.
Many employees will be involved in this effort.CLA and quality teams will be documenting and updating the way of doing things in Procedures and Work Instructions.
ISO/IEC 17025 Highlights: Things that you will be hearing as your company proceed with this project….
Documented Information
Documented information will support the operation of your activities and the processes and will provide confidence that they are carried out as planned.
Procedures will be written to describe how a process or activity is done. For example, a procedure for the Control of documented information is written to describe the overall document control process. When detailed instructions are needed, a work instruction will be written to describe how to do a task or process. In the example above, a procedure is written describing the overall control process. A work instruction is written to describe how to assign control numbers for the documents.
