Introduction
History of ISO/IEC 17025
Quality management is defined by ISO 9000 as a set of "coordinated activities to direct and control an organization with regard to quality.” By extension, those coordinated activities require sufficient "organizational structure, resources, processes and procedures" in order to implement quality management throughout the enterprise, otherwise known as a quality system.[1]
How supporting quality management in the laboratory improves society
"Quality management is as applicable for the medical laboratory as it is for manufacturing and industry," states the World Health Organization (WHO) in its 2011 Laboratory Quality Management System: Handbook.[1] While the medical laboratory is better covered by ISO 15189, the WHO's statement highlights that all laboratories can benefit from implementing quality management principles.
