  2. Brief history

  3. NIMT is established according to the National Metrology Development Act B.E. 2540 (1997) and was found on June 1, 1998 NIMT is an autonomous institution under Ministry of Science and Technology and is designated to be the National highest authority in scientific metrology NIMT has 2 campuses; one in Pathum-thani and the other in Bangkok Brief History NIMT’s 15th Anniversary: Next steps and new challenges

  4. NIMT was found right at the outbreak of the Asian Economic Crisis called “Tom Yam Koong Crisis” We are grateful to all our friends who extended their helping hands to support us during the toughest time of our organization, thank you very very much.

  36. Our new challenges

  37. Extend our traceability to cover new areas • in health industry: Ministry of Public Health • in environment protection: Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment • in food safety: Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives, Ministry of Public Health • in disaster mitigation: To create larger tangible impact (I) NIMT’s 15th Anniversary: Next steps and new challenges

  38. Organize our accumulated knowledge of measurement technology to work and create larger tangible impact for our users • Thai SMEs • Automotive industries • Food industries To create larger tangible impact (II)

  39. ASEAN Economic Community: a growing market of over 6 millions population. The third largest next to China and India MSTQ is the very foundation to facilitate the free flow of goods within the region, and scientific metrology is the most fundamental one How can NIMT and all other NMIs collaborate to help build up and harmonize metrology infrastructure to support free flow of goods To create larger tangible impact (III)

  40. Challenges from within • Work as an individual vs. work as a team • Let customer walk in vs. walk out to understand customer’s needs and demands • Synergy with intra and inter ministerial organizations with win-win approach • It will be drastic challenges for us to strive for changes in our attitude To create larger tangible impact

  41. Thank you for your kind attention NIMT’s 15th Anniversary: Next steps and new challenges
