Findings

Certificate of calibration not accredited.

One supplier in calibration services.
Procedures not according to ISO 17025 General Requirements for
the competence of testing and calibration laboratories.
Formats and methods without specs and uncertainties.
There is no register in disposal equipment and new purchase.

Accreditation

Accreditation means
that an accrediting
entity assessed the
technical competence
and qualified personnel.

Last year visited calibration laboratories, it were evaluated and call them to
negotiated prices in Calibration services, They were traded certain
calibration points.

According to Evaluation Suppliers, We changed calibration

laboratory agreeing price for two years

In house Calibration Project

According to magnitude analysis at the beginning, it will be make an
investment of electrical standard for calibration of powers
suppliers and multimeter.

We will not pay for these equipment in calibration service this year

Opportunities in calibration area

There are magnitudes dimensional & Mass to migrated in internal calibration project.

Implementing metrological culture by internal trainings, this way SMK save money to avoid external training in metrology topics.

To trained staff and acquire knowledge for better decision when they purchase equipment.

Improve measurement process in areas: Design, NPD, IQC, auditors, etc.

Improve a current data base.
