Reliable analytical measurement results, be they chemical, physical or biological are essential to the functioning of modern society. Most advanced nations spend up to six per cent of their gross national product on measurement and measurement-related operations. The costs of getting the wrong results can be enormous. For example, in forensic analysis this could lead to wrongful conviction or the guilty going unpunished. Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC) operations represent a cornerstone for the function of modern society.

- Data treatment
- enchmarking your laboratory
- Documentation and its management
- Managing quality
