Thorough testing and validation of equipment provides reassurance of quality and reliability. The purchase of equipment that meets published Australian or International Standards helps to demonstrate a wise use of public money and therefore positive accountability.
Laboratory services for government departments and funding organisations include:
- Testing/benchmarking products in accordance with Australian and International Standards
- Evaluation of causes of failure (for forensic purposes) and supply of legally acceptable reports
- Professional consultation regarding appropriate inclusion of standard compliance requirements in purchasing guidelines and procedures
- Specific workshops for your staff on the structure, rationale and advantages of standards compliance relating to organisational operations and purchasing guidelines
For manufacturers and agents
Verification of compliance with Australian Standards demonstrates to the industry and potential customers that the equipment is of high quality, reliable and safe. It is hard evidence that it is a world standard product.
Independent testing in accordance with published standards strengthens confidence in manufacturing quality systems and the results provide strong support to medical device technical files required by TGA regulations.
Laboratory services for manufacturers and agents include:
- Testing products in accordance with Australian and International Standards for official recognition of compliance, with National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA) endorsement
- Assessment of test data from an overseas source
- Evaluation of causes of failure (for forensic purposes) and supply of legally acceptable reports
