INTERNATIONAL MUTUAL RECOGNITION (ILAC)
The
International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC)
Mutual
Recognition Agreement (MRA)
On November 2, 2000, A2LA signed the mutual
recognition arrangement with the International Laboratory Accreditation
Cooperation (ILAC).
The Arrangement was signed in Washington, D.C.
at the General Assembly of the International Laboratory Accreditation
Cooperation (ILAC) and entered into force on January 31, 2001. More than 30
accreditation bodies from 26 economies signed the arrangements.
A cornerstone of the ILAC MRA is the
utilization of existing or developing regional arrangements established in the
Americas (IAAC), the Asia-Pacific region (APLAC), Europe (EA) and Southern
Africa. The bodies participating in these regional arrangements are responsible
for maintaining the necessary confidence in the competence of their member
accreditation bodies that are signatories to the new ILAC Arrangement.
By signing the ILAC MRA, the signatory
accreditation bodies commit to promoting acceptance of the test
reports/calibration reports issued by the laboratories accredited by the
signatory accreditation bodies.
As of June 30, 2002, the following
accreditation bodies were signatories to the ILAC MRA:

INTERNATIONAL
MUTUAL RECOGNITION (APLAC)
The Asia Pacific Laboratory Accreditation
Cooperation (APLAC)
Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA)
On November 19, 1997, A2LA signed the Asia
Pacific Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (APLAC) mutual recognition
arrangement.
The arrangement is intended to facilitate the
acceptance of test and calibration data with a number of Asia-Pacific countries
whose national accreditation bodies have signed the APLAC arrangement. APLAC
promotes the recognition and acceptance in all the signatory countries of
certificates and reports issued by organizations accredited by national
accreditation bodies who have signed the arrangement.
By signing the arrangement, the signatory
accreditation bodies commit to promoting acceptance of the test
reports/calibration reports issued by the laboratories accredited by the
signatory accreditation bodies. However, accreditation bodies cannot guarantee
acceptance by their stakeholders. As such, one of A2LA's primary functions is
to assist A2LA-accredited laboratories in gaining acceptance of their data in
the countries of the APLAC arrangement signatories. Likewise, A2LA is committed
to helping laboratories accredited by the APLAC arrangement signatories obtain
acceptance in the United States.
Through the APLAC MRA evaluation process, a
uniform level of competence of the accredited bodies is assured, and the need
for multiple assessments is diminished or eliminated. Ideally, a supplier would
only need one certificate or report to satisfy the entire Asia-Pacific market
and all governments.
In addition to A2LA, signatories to the APLAC
MRA as of June 30, 2002 include:
NATA

SCC (Canada)
