Proficiency Test
Secure the validity with efficient proficiency testing.
Proficiency testing is a powerful way of checking the validity of the test results from your lab and may even be required by standards such as ISO 17025 and similar. Many institutions like dairies and laboratories operate in isolation from other similar institutions and laboratories and do not have ongoing opportunities to compare their data with others. Without the opportunity for comparing data there are risks that their own data may have errors, biases or significant differences compared to other institutions.
