Hello,
I have a question regarding approving a calibration lab here in the U.S.
I work for a European Company that has a start-up here in the U.S. The Cal Lab were looking at is an A2LA ISO/IEC 17025-1999 and ISO9001:2000 accredited Cal Lab. Some of my European colleagues have questions about the Cal Lab's in general that operate here in the U.S. additionally meeting or being certified to the ENAC, UKAS or COFRAC accrediting entities. This would be an additional cost to any CAl Lab to go through the approval process of a European Accrediting entity for a "Potential" Customer/Account.
I'm thinkning that if we meet A2LA and The "International" ISO/IEC 17025:1999 standards it should be o.k. to approve the lab as a service provider.
Any thoughts or caveats to this situation?
