In short

ISO 17025 accreditation in Delhi at a glance

Testing and calibration sit close to Delhi's manufacturers. Okhla's electronics estates and the engineering units of Mayapuri and Wazirpur depend on gauges, meters and test equipment whose readings customers want traced to a recognised reference, and DSIIDC itself publishes a state-level directory of testing facilities that MSMEs can reach. Laboratories in the city also deal with both national accreditation bodies, NABL for laboratories and NABCB for certification bodies, whose offices are in New Delhi. ISO/IEC 17025 sets the technical competence and impartiality requirements for a laboratory: validated methods, traceable measurements, estimated uncertainty, controlled records and proficiency testing. Sterling prepares Delhi laboratories for assessment; the accreditation decision rests with the accreditation body.

ISO 17025 in Delhi: questions clients ask

Where do Delhi laboratories apply for accreditation?

Testing and calibration laboratories apply to NABL, whose office is in New Delhi. Sterling prepares the laboratory for assessment, but the accreditation decision is NABL's alone. The India page explains the national scheme; ask NABL for the current scope documents.

Why do Delhi manufacturers ask for accredited calibration?

Customer auditors check that gauges and instruments trace to a recognised reference, and accredited calibration certificates are the simplest proof. Electronics and engineering units in Okhla and Mayapuri therefore tend to prefer accredited laboratories. Your buyer's quality manual will say what it accepts.
