Objectives

This proficiency assessment program's main objectives are to confirm the competent performance of the laboratory and indicate possibilities for improvements for the Indelibility of Markings test applied to equipment/items that are subjected to this type of test.

Description

The Proficiency Testing Program (PTP) for Indelibility of Markings consists of determining the indelibility of markings on equipment made by painting or similar processes. Accredited or accreditation-seeking laboratories that perform indelibility testing of markings independent of the applied standard are eligible to participate in the program. The test should be performed using the participant's method.

Statistical model for result evaluation: In this program, the participant's results will be compared directly with the consensus of the accredited laboratories in the group (mode of at least 75%).

The activities of Qualabor as a proficiency testing provider are carried out with impartiality, structure, and management to ensure such characteristic. Qualabor guarantees that the identity of participants in each program is confidential and only known by those involved in its operation, becoming public only if the participant denies their confidentiality. Qualabor also ensures that all information provided by participants will be treated as confidential.

Qualabor also guarantees that any commercial, financial, or other tensions will not compromise the impartiality of the provider. This is ensured by the "acknowledgment and agreement term" signed by Qualabor's employees who affect the quality of the proficiency program.

EPTIS

EPTIS helps you find a suitable proficiency testing (PT) scheme for your laboratory (a PT scheme is a coherent series of single rounds). For a large number of schemes we have produced data sheets and collected them in the EPTIS database. What is not included in the database is topical information on next PT rounds. When is the next round, and what is the matrix material this time? This information is too dynamic as to be included in the database. But you can find such details for a selection of schemes in our PT calendar.

At present, a listing on the database is only open to PT providers from countries that are covered by our so-called coordinators. They check the plausibility of the data sheet submissions and decide on their publication. They speak the language and are ideally familiar with local PT providers and cultural peculiarities. This helps to safeguard a reasonable level of database quality. There is no cost for PT providers who follow this basic mechanism.
