Hello everyone!
I am working in a metrology lab and I have been assigned the implementation of a QMS according to ISO 17025. Personally, I would like to obtain accreditation by the end of 2013 or first half of 2014, even though there is no time limit.
Before I was assigned this task, I had been doing calibration services so I have a pretty good idea of uncertainty and other technical aspects. Though one can always learn more and new things.
I've been wondering where to start. I researched for a lot of information on how to implement a QMS, and this is what I came up with:
After this, start with the Quality Manual, Policies, Roles and Responsibilities Manual and everything needed to comply with ISO 17025.
I think this is an idea that can be improved.
What dou you think? I would like to know a few suggestions on how to start implementing an ISO 17025 QMS.
Thank you!
Paul

I've been wondering where to start. I researched for a lot of information on how to implement a QMS, and this is what I came up with:
- Identify main processes.
- Identify main roles and responsibilities.
- Write a procedure for creation of documents in the QMS.
- Elaborate documentation, always in coordination with each section in the company, following those already indentified processes.
- Supervise that everything is going according to what is documented.
After this, start with the Quality Manual, Policies, Roles and Responsibilities Manual and everything needed to comply with ISO 17025.
