DESCRIPTION:When a calibration report is provided by a calibration supplier
 \, a typical concern for the customer is to know if the item calibrated is
  within the tolerance specified so it can used without delay. While this t
 raditional approach is still thought to be fine over the years\, measureme
 nt science has evolved where it is not a simple binary issue of a “pass
 ” or “fail” status to manufacturer’s specification.\n\nLaboratory 
 accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025 has advanced the good practices related to 
 calibration to include more information to the process of calibrating an i
 tem and calling it within conformance (“pass” or “fail”).\n\nThis 
 presentation describes what is involved in making statements of conformity
 . What was traditionally the job of a calibration laboratory (the “exper
 ts”) to make a call (“pass” or “fail”) now requires interaction 
 up front from the customer before they can make that call on a calibration
  certificate. The contract review phase becomes more important in specifyi
 ng the calibration requirements by the customer.\n\nThis presentation educ
 ates both the consumer and supplier of calibration services on what is req
 uired of them to ensure that an “appropriate” pass or fail call is mad
 e to meet the requirements of the customer when a calibration activity tak
 es place.\n\nThe learning objectives of this presentation are:\n\n- Unders
 tanding the decision rules for conformance\n- Specifying the conformance r
 equirements by the customer.\n- How measurement uncertainty impacts a deci
 sion rule and associated risk.\n- How a statement of conformity should be 
 reported.\n- Understanding the conformance decision and minimizing the ris
 k for a safer use of the calibrated item with confidence.\n\nExpected outc
 ome after attending the presentation:\n\n- Specifying exact calibration re
 quirements including decision rules by the customer.\n- Better understandi
 ng of customer requirements.\n- Better Reporting of the calibration result
 s by the supplier after implementing the decision rule(s).\n- Less misinte
 rpretation of customer requirements.\n- Better understanding of risk mitig
 ation.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dilip Shah\, \n\nRoom: 2008\, Bldg: Engineering and

  calibration supplier\, a typical concern for the customer is to know if t
 he item calibrated is within the tolerance specified so it can used withou
 t delay. While this traditional approach is still thought to be fine over 
 the years\, measurement science has evolved where it is not a simple binar
 y issue of a &amp;ldquo\;pass&amp;rdquo\; or &amp;ldquo\;fail&amp;rdquo\; status to manufa
 cturer&amp;rsquo\;s specification.&lt;/p&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;Laboratory accreditation to ISO/IEC
  17025 has advanced the good practices related to calibration to include m
 ore information to the process of calibrating an item and calling it withi
 n conformance (&amp;ldquo\;pass&amp;rdquo\; or &amp;ldquo\;fail&amp;rdquo\;).&lt;/p&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;This
  presentation describes what is involved in making statements of conformit
 y. What was traditionally the job of a calibration laboratory (the &amp;ldquo\
 ;experts&amp;rdquo\;) to make a call (&amp;ldquo\;pass&amp;rdquo\; or &amp;ldquo\;fail&amp;rdq
 uo\;) now requires interaction up front from the customer before they can 
 make that call on a calibration certificate. The contract review phase bec
 omes more important in specifying the calibration requirements by the cust
 omer.&lt;/p&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;This presentation educates both the consumer and supplier of
  calibration services on what is required of them to ensure that an &amp;ldquo
 \;appropriate&amp;rdquo\; pass or fail call is made to meet the requirements o
