摘要

The NVLAP Procedures are a part of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations and set forth the conditions under which the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) will function. The Procedures contain general information about NVLAP, requirements for establishing a program in a specific field of testing, the process for accrediting a laboratory, and conditions and criteria for accreditation. NVLAP is a system for accrediting testing laboratories found competent to perform specific tests and types of tests. Competence is defined as the ability of a laboratory to meet conditions and conform to criteria specified in the Procedures as tailored and interpreted for the test methods, types of test methods, products, services, or standards for which the laboratory seeks accreditation.
