Depending on your cal cycle, you may be asking the impossible.
To accumulate data for 1000 gages for say, 4-5 years and possibly up to 10 is a huge consumption of man hours.
Also, I don't think an outside source that is not familiar with how you use your gages can offer a trend analysis. They don't know how often you use your gages, or any other factors that could affect them: storage, training of the people using the gages etc. They can tell you what THEY see in the gage over the last 10 calibrations, but I feel it would be meaningless without context.
Having been where I am for 11 years, we have never been asked to do a trend analysis. It seems an unusual request to me.
Just my $0.02.
