Accreditation is the formal recognition that an organisation is competent to perform specific processes, activities, or tasks (which are detailed in a scope of accreditation) in a reliable credible and accurate manner. The provision of accreditation must:
be objective, transparent and effective; use highly professional competent assessors and technical experts in all relevant fields; use assessors (and subcontractors) that are reliable, ethical and competent in both accreditation processes and the relevant technical fields. Accreditation delivers confidence in certificates and conformity statements. It underpins the quality of results by ensuring their traceability, comparability, validity and commutability.
