Calibration Services for Engineering and R&D

Advanced Calibration Services for Engineering and R&D

Engineering and research & development organizations drive technological innovation, scientific advancement, and breakthrough discoveries that shape our future. From fundamental research in national laboratories to cutting-edge product development in corporate R&D centers, these environments require measurement accuracy that validates theories, supports patent applications, enables technology transfer, and ensures that tomorrow's innovations become today's reliable products.

Quality Surveillance, Inc., backed by the trusted Accredited Labs network, provides specialized calibration services designed for the unique challenges, precision requirements, and innovative applications of engineering and R&D operations.

The Innovation Imperative and Measurement Excellence

Engineering and R&D environments represent the forefront of human knowledge and technological capability, where accurate measurement often determines the difference between breakthrough discovery and experimental failure. Research data must withstand peer review, patent applications require validated measurements, and prototype testing demands accuracy that ensures successful technology transfer from laboratory to market.

The R&D environment presents unique calibration challenges including experimental equipment, custom instrumentation, extreme measurement conditions, and the need to push measurement boundaries beyond conventional limits. Modern research increasingly involves interdisciplinary collaboration, international cooperation, and technology development that requires measurement standards accepted worldwide.

Research Standards and Compliance Requirements

National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
Research applications often require NIST-traceable measurements, collaboration with NIST laboratories, and adherence to NIST measurement standards. Our calibration services provide NIST traceability and support collaboration with national measurement institutes.

International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
Research laboratories increasingly implement ISO quality management systems and measurement standards that require comprehensive calibration programs. Our services support ISO compliance and international recognition of research results and measurement capabilities.

Good Laboratory Practices (GLP)
Research conducted for regulatory submissions or commercial applications must comply with GLP standards that require documented calibration programs and measurement traceability. Our services support GLP compliance and regulatory submission requirements.
