What is ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration and who does it apply to?

ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration is a compliance framework from International with 4 domains and 74 controls. It is used by organisations to establish and maintain compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements.

What does ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration actually require?

ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration has 74 controls organised across 4 domains. The largest domains are General requirements – ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration (35 controls), Process requirements – ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration (21 controls), Management system requirements – ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration (12 controls). Each control defines specific requirements that organisations must implement to achieve compliance.

If I already comply with another framework, how much of ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration do I already cover?

ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration maps to 183 other compliance frameworks. The top mapping partners are ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (24% coverage), ISO 15189:2022 - Medical Laboratories Requirements for Quality and Competence (20% coverage), ISO 31000:2018 (15% coverage). Use our comparison tool to explore control-level mappings between frameworks.
