ISO/IEC 17025 2017 version Checklist
The ISO/IEC 17025 checklist is organized according to the chapters of the standard, to ensure a complete assessment of all requirements of the new standard.
If you are thinking of preparing an ISO 17025 2017 version Laboratory Management System (LMS) then where do you start? We start with a Gap Analysis to determine the gap between your current management system and an ISO 17025 conforming LMS. A Gap Analysis is used to assess an organization’s scope, readiness, and resources for building the system. It also provides us with the data to develop a project plan for ISO implementation.
This gap analysis checklist can be used in evaluating your Laboratory Management System (LMS) against the requirements of ISO 17025:2017 as you transition from ISO 17025:2005 to ISO 17025:2017.
New requirements and/or new terminology are highlighted in bold red.
The second column is intended to provide reference/comparison to the ISO 17025:2005 requirements.
Comments in the second column in bold red font indicate removed / missing requirements.
ISO/IEC 17025 checklist covers audit questions based on ISO/IEC 17025:2017 requirements for each department of the testing and calibration laboratories as given below. ISO/IEC 17025 checklist is considered a very good tool for auditors to make an audit questionnaire to verify the effectiveness of the implemented laboratory management system. A total of more than 200 internal ISO 17025 audit questions are prepared based on ISO 17025:2017 standard.
This ISO 17025 checklist shall be filled in by laboratories that are applying for, or wish to renew its accreditation. If an accredited laboratory has made big changes in the management system’s structure, the ISO/IEC 17025 checklist also shall be filled in.
The paragraphs arranged in the ISO/IEC 17025 checklist are in the same order as given in NS-EN ISO/IEC 17025 (2017). In some cases, they are also referred to as other required documents.
“Our laboratory got overwhelmed with the prospect of undergoing ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation.
Good thing that we’ve discovered QSE Academy because the firm was able to help us in applying the requirements into our processes.
As a result, we got efficient operational value and increased productivity.
We developed our system around the standard’s requirements using QSE Academy’s simplified paperwork.
We also got so much information from our email and one-on-one sessions, which led to our employees becoming fully informed about how to comply with the requirements.
Thank you, QSE Academy, for giving us an edge in the global arena.
“One of my industry colleagues recommended QSE Academy to assist us in our bid to accreditation.
He recalled how QSE Academy toolkits made their implementation simple and productive.
After reviewing the firm’s packages and assessing customer reviews, our management decided to obtain toolkits from QSE Academy so we could quickly secure ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation.
Indeed, consultants from QSE Academy were very hands-on even if the documents they have provided are well-explained and very detailed.
This is one of the best investments our business has made, especially since we’re already reaping the rewards of this journey.
