Our Proficiency Testing Programs

Proficiency testing programs from MPPL enable laboratories to benchmark their performance levels against those of their peers, ensuring excellence and reliability.

Purpose and Process of Proficiency Testing

Purpose: The primary objective of proficiency testing is to assess a laboratory’s performance in terms of testing expertise and quality. Participation in proficiency testing is essential for any laboratory aiming for accreditation and excellence in testing proficiency. The benefits of proficiency testing significantly outweigh the minimal costs, as regular testing improves the capabilities of the laboratory team.

Process: Scheduled sets of PT samples are sent to laboratories by an ISO/IEC 17043 accredited PT provider, which then analyse the samples (e.g., metal or alloy blocks or chips) according to specified instructions. The laboratories report their results to the PT provider (MPPL), who then evaluates their performance.
