ISO/IEC 17025
Designed around the workflows the standard asks for.
ISO/IEC 17025 sets out what a competent calibration or testing laboratory must demonstrate. ValiTrac is built so that the records a laboratory needs are produced as a by-product of doing the work well.
Traceability
Reference standards and their calibration chains are recorded against every result, so a value can be related to its references through documented calibrations.
Competence
Roles, authorisation and review responsibilities are part of the workflow, not a separate document.
Equipment
Calibration status, records and fitness for use are tracked per item and surfaced when the item is used.
Methods
Procedures are documented and versioned; deviations are recorded rather than silently absorbed.
Uncertainty
Budgets are built from named components and combined by a deterministic engine following the GUM.
Technical review
Consequential outputs — reports, certificates — stay marked not approved until a responsible person completes a review.
Nonconforming work
Data-quality failures, excursions and validation failures are recorded and visible, never hidden.
Records
Inputs, results, evidence, calculations and workflow states are retained together with their provenance.
