With the continuous development of economy and society, the quality of products has been highly valued by people. The level of laboratory management plays an extremely important role in product quality control, directly affecting the stability of the company's products, quality improvement and the rapid advancement of new products. It undertakes the important tasks of index control and process research and development. Enterprise laboratory management level and technical ability are challenged by more and more customers, requiring more professional testing reports. In order to meet the challenges, the laboratory should accurately grasp the relevant requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 and establish an effective quality management system according to it. It can not only prove its technical ability to the society and customers, but also realize self-improvement of the laboratory, and constantly improve the detection technology ability, shorten the gap with the authoritative laboratory, to adapt to the new requirements of customers.

随着经济社会的不断发展，产品的质量问题受到了人们的高度重视，而实验室管理水平的高低，对产品质量控制起着极为重要的作用，直接影响着公司产品的稳定性、质量改进以及新产品的快速推进，承担着指标控制和工艺研发的重要任务。企业实验室管理水平和技术能力受到越来越多客户的挑战，要求出具更专业的检测报告。为了应对挑战，实验室应准确地掌握 ISO/IEC 17025相关要求，并按其建立有效的质量管理体系。其不仅可以向社会、客户证明自己的技术能力，而且还可以实现实验室自我改进，并不断提高检测技术能力，缩短与权威实验室差距，适应客户不断提出的新要求。
