In the world of metrology, measurement uncertainty and its level of impact on calibration plays a huge role in decisions about what products to purchase, along with who to receive calibration services from. Minimizing measurement uncertainty is key for anyone making critical measurements, but many may be confused about what measurement uncertainty is and how to determine the significance of an assigned value.

This year’s focus was on how accreditation improves food safety, supporting the confidence of consumers, suppliers, purchasers, regulators and specifiers in the quality and safety of food [1]. When it comes to ensuring food safety, consumers and suppliers rely on their equipment and calibration providers to comply with the appropriate international standards, such as ISO/IEC 17025:2017. 
Attaining accreditation status to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 is a rigorous process that ensures that the technical competence of personnel, the ethics of personnel, and the reliability of the organization itself are at a level that can be recognized on an international scale. The
