ONE OF MY CLIENT IS PROVIDING LABORATORY SERVICES IN THE AREAS OF AIR / WATER POLLUTION. THIS LAB RECEIVES SAMPLES FOR ANALYSIS AND IT PROVIDES BACK ANALYTICAL REPORTS.
WHERE REQUIRED, THIS LAB PROVIDES SUITABLE POLLUTION CONTROL MEASURES.
ADDITIONALLY, THIS LAB HAS ENGINEERING EXPERTISE ALSO.
THIS LAB IS INTERESTED IN GETTING A RECOGNITION THROUGH ISO CERTIFICATION. HOW DO THEY GO ABOUT : SHOULD THEY GO FOR ISO9002 OR ISO 9001 ?
WILL THIS CERTIFICATION HELP THEM GET A SPECIAL RECOGNITION FOR THIER LABORATORY.
THANKS

If by engineering, you mean design and development, they could go for either ISO 9001 or ISO 9002. If they are willing to have the design and development a part of the audit scope, do 9001. If not, do 9002.

Will the certification help them get special recognition? ISO 9000 is a Quality Management System that is registered against a standard. The registration certifies that a Quality Management System exists and is in compliance with the standard. Only their customers or potential customers can determine if this is worthy of ăspecial recognition.ä

thanks for the response

the client will go for iso9001 as he has full scope for design.

1. since there is no process involved , how do i give treatment to clause 4.9?

2. again, the laboratory which is serving the environment sector (air & water pollution), will it be expected that the procedures for the laboratory activity comply with provisions of IEC25 even though the lab may not get certified for IEC25 separately.

I would suggest that the procedures for 4.9 be prepared regardless. Remember, ăthe range and detail of the procedures that form part of the quality system depend on the complexity of the work, the methods used, and the skills and training needed by personnel involved in carrying out the activity.ä When the question is asked, there is a procedure in place, whether it is in actual use or not.

...that the procedures for the laboratory activity comply with provisions of IEC25...

I would humbly suggest that this be considered separately from ISO 9001.

Don
