Implementation of ISO/IEC 17025:2017 in Indian Testing and Calibration Laboratories – A Multiple Regression Analysis for Sustainable Development

Article attempt to investigate the factors influencing “ISO/IEC 17025: 2017” implementation in experimenting with calibration labs in India. Approach: We employed a cross-sectional survey method in this study. The responses were collected from managing directors/CEO, laboratories in charge, quality managers technical managers through structured questionnaires. The “National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL)”, India, released a list from which the sample was chosen. 525 usable responses were collected during the study. Findings: Observation gives execution of ISO/IEC 17025: 2017 was positively impacted by the attitudes, motivation, awareness, perceived internal and external benefits, and motivation. Repercussion:This study shows that the calibration and testing laboratories need gain sufficient knowledge to assure implementation, good attitude towards implementation, high enthusiasm to implement and understanding benefits of both internal and external following the adoption of “ISO/IEC 17025: 2017”.
