Introduction

Food and beverage labs and the LAAF program

As of the beginning of December 2023, there are 24 accredited laboratories and seven accreditation bodies.[1] This number is expected to grow, as the LAAF program won't come into effect until well after "there is sufficient LAAF-accredited laboratory capacity for the food testing covered by the final rule."[2] That capacity number isn't known, but as more labs become LAAF-accredited, they will increasingly wish to ensure their informatics systems can not only help them continue to meet ISO/IEC 17025 requirements but also the additional requirements placed on the lab by LAAF.
