Third-party Accreditation Through A2LA and NVLAP

Elite’s quality accreditation offers a third-party assessment of our test and certification services. These credentials show a benchmark of performance for efficiency, repeatability, accuracy to the ISO quality standards. Presently, Elite has ISO-based quality system accreditation through two organizations: A2LA and NVLAP.

ISO 17025 encompasses the primary documentation and QA process management elements of the ISO 9002 quality standard. It is adapted for the testing industry to discuss the technical competence, facilities, and resources that are required for testing and calibration. The ISO 17065 certification quality system is required to do radio transmitter certifications for manufacturers seeking compliance with the FCC and ISED Canada regulations.
