RICI Achieves SAAC Accreditation for Calibration Services

The SAAC accreditation recognizes the technical and management competence of RICI Calibration Laboratory within its approved accreditation scope.

SAAC provides accreditation for testing and calibration laboratories against ISO/IEC 17025, the international standard that establishes general requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories. The accreditation process evaluates a laboratory's ability to perform specific testing and calibration activities within defined fields.

For RICI, achieving SAAC accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 further strengthens its position as a provider of professional calibration and conformity assessment services in Saudi Arabia.

What ISO/IEC 17025:2017 Means for Calibration Laboratories

ISO/IEC 17025:2017 is the internationally recognized standard for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories.

The standard focuses on the technical and management requirements needed to produce reliable and technically valid measurement results. For calibration laboratories, this includes areas such as technical competence, measurement processes, equipment, personnel, quality management, and reliable reporting.

Accreditation against ISO/IEC 17025 helps provide confidence that a laboratory has been assessed for competence within its defined scope.

SAAC identifies ISO/IEC 17025 as the applicable international standard for accreditation of testing and calibration laboratories in Saudi Arabia.

Why Accredited Calibration Matters

For many industries, calibration is not simply a routine maintenance activity. Accurate and reliable measurement can directly affect product quality, process performance, safety, regulatory compliance, and audit readiness.

Organizations may require accredited calibration services when working with customer specifications, regulatory requirements, project requirements, quality management systems, or contractual obligations.

SAAC states that laboratory accreditation is intended to evaluate the technical and managerial competence of laboratories performing defined testing, measurement, and calibration activities and to increase confidence in the quality of their results and procedures.

This makes access to a competent and appropriately accredited calibration laboratory particularly important for industries where measurement accuracy is critical.
