Why NACLA in the United States The Laboratory’s Perspective
Competition of AB’s • Price • Quality • Service • Responsiveness • Choice • Improvement • Cooperation
Uniformity of Accreditation Assessments • Stakeholder involvement • Assessor Forum and Training • Proficiency Test Requirements Coordination • Coordinated Check-sheet development • Guidance Document Coordination
Sector-specific requirements that are driven by regulator and/or specifier and laboratory and not by the AB • Allows the stakeholders to define requirements • Better requirements with NACLA coordination • US/Them taken out of picture • Meets Regulators/Specifiers Needs • Allows AB to Attest unbiased (better)
Elimination of duplicative or redundant assessments • Stakeholders can utilize the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO/IEC 17011 and require one standard • Trust the evaluation of NACLA and the NACLA recognized AB • Add sector specific requirements coordinated through NACLA and ACIL as required
Common US voice domestically and internationally on recognition/accreditation policy issues • Stakeholders need one trustworthy place to discuss specifics on laboratory accreditation in the United States • That place should represent all stakeholders in the process • That place should be unbiased • That place should be able to make policy for the United States for both Accreditation Bodies and Accredited Labs
