IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS FOR CERTIFICATION AND INSPECTION BODIES
Abstract
The paper provides a
general review of accreditation as an effective and eficient means for provi-
sion of competence, impartiality, independence and integrity of conformity
assessing organizations, which creates conidence of all interested parties into
the results of testing, inspection and certiica- tion of products processes and
services. Implementation of international standards, as the accredita- tion
proceedings brought into accord, provides similar levels of competence of
conformity assessing bodies in all states and obtaining comparable results,
thus contributing, within different international and regional agreements, to
the possibility of creating mutual recognition of conformity documents - i.e.
reports and certiicates. New requirements are presented brought about by the
new standards of SRPS ISOlIEC 17065:2013 and SRPS ISOlIEC 17020:2012, as well
as their application in the certiication and inspection body Vinca Institute.
