The DRRR programme covers a wide range of chemical, microbiological and sensory proficiency testing schemes so you can utilise our quality standards in many fields of testing. An objective and independent assessment of the quality and performance of your routine testing method compared to the other participating laboratories is provided. The results of the proficiency testing can be used to demonstrate your performance.

Regular participants in the proficiency testing schemes can benefit from a Premium Certificate that evaluates and presents long term development of performance. The Premium Certificate also includes calculated measurement uncertainty. Additionally participants can build up thier own external quality assurance system using the statistical tools provided (including statistical control charts, MS-Excel evaluation files and reference materials).

Organisation scheme for our proficiency testing:

• Precise planning and organisation of each proficiency testing round
• Dates are notified at least 2 weeks before sample dispatch
