Abstract:
With reference to CIPM-MRA (Mutual recognition of national measurement standards and of calibration and measurement certificates issued by national metrology institutes), APMP (Asia Pacific Metrology Programme) have established 11 TCs (Technical Committees) including TCM (Technical Committee of Mass related quantities) which discusses hardness related issues in APMP. Under the TC activities, the guidelines and procedures for accepting CMCs (Calibration and Measurement Capabilities) and QS (Quality System) have been drawn up by taking closer cooperation with the JCRB (Joint Committee of the RMOs and the BIPM). Therefore, the concept of the procedures and guidelines are effectively introduced in the course of intra-regional and inter-regional reviews for submitted CMCs within APMP and from other RMOs (Regional Metrology Organizations), respectively.
