A: ISO 17025 is complex and requires an in-depth understanding and training for the processes/guidelines developed.  Developing, implementing and maintaining an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory is a challenge, but it is worth the time and effort in order to provide internationally recognized test results for all of our clients.
