Laboratory accreditation allows laboratories to determine their performance. During accreditation activities the accreditation body assesses all aspects of a laboratory\u2019s facility and operations to ensure the production of accurate test data. Areas for improvement are identified and the laboratory is required to make the necessary corrective action to improve their performance quality.<\/p>\n<p><strong>International Recognition<\/strong><br \/>\nAccreditation bodies conduct assessments against the requirements of International Standards.\u00a0 This allows a uniform approach to determining a laboratory\u2019s competence which in turn allows countries to mutually accept each other\u2019s accredited test or calibration data through international agreements referred to as Mutual Recognition Arrangements (MRAs).\u00a0 This system of MRAs between accreditation bodies has enabled laboratories to have the benefit of international recognition of their test or calibration data.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1539297206334{margin-right: 0px
