- Description
- The objective of an accreditation assessment is to establish whether a laboratory complies with the accrediting body's requirements for accreditation and can competently perform the types of tests or calibrations for which accreditation is sought. Accreditation is required to demonstrate compliance with additional criteria of the AOAC INTERNATIONAL Guidelines for Laboratories Performing Microbiological and Chemical Analyses of Food, Dietary Supplements, and Pharmaceuticals.In the past, FDA's laboratories operated under a variety of formal and informal quality management systems. All of these systems had the same aim - to assure the quality of laboratory results upon which regulatory decisions are made. However, these systems differed in their rigor and in the amount of independent oversight exercised. An FDA quality management system that is accredited to international standards (ISO 17025) enabled FDA managers to better maintain high quality laboratory operations, to more easily control resources, and to act with more confidence in meeting the needs of their customers and stakeholders. Through laboratory accreditation, FDA Laboratories maintain their reputation as a source of scientifically sound information and guidance. The accreditation process started in 2003 and FDA laboratories undergo a full on-site assessment every two years depending upon the expiration of their Accreditation Certificate.The Contractor shall provide service for third party accreditation by Internationally Recognized and ISO 17011 conforming accrediting body for ORS Laboratories.The Government intends to issue a firm fixed-price purchase order as result of this solicitation. Please see the attached RFQ for complete requirement details and quotation submission instructions and Attachment A- Pricing Template to fill in.
