SDGs: Metrology for Propserity

Metrology for Prosperity

High-performance products and manufacturing systems require accurate measurements for a wide range of parameters and production environments.

For developing countries the challenge is characterized by the ability to provide the measurement infrastructure that underpins or directly performs effective calibration and testing to ensure that:

  • components and finished products meet regulatory requirements, documentary standards and specifications,
  • consumer and industrial quality expectations are met, including product value/price and reliability,
  • all interoperability requirements are satisfied, and
  • conformity assessment can be effectively demonstrated (typically through the use of the CIPM MRA and accreditation) leading to measurement and test results that are internationally recognized.
