Proficiency testing 2015

Dear employees of the testing laboratories,

We would like to inform you about upcoming competence testing programs (ZZ) designed as interlaboratory comparative tests (MPZ), to which we hereby invite you. The focus of these ZZ programs is for testing laboratories that conduct tests of solid fossil fuels, i.e. brown (HU) and black (CU) coal. The program is designed for all laboratories of energy, mining and metallurgical enterprises as well as for research and service workplaces.

The concept of ZZ programs in SZZ ORGREZ, a.s. is based on the application of the standard ČSN EN ISO/IEC 17 043 (01 5264) Conformity assessment — General requirements for competence testing. The program ZZ/UHLI/A, S, Q/2015 takes place within the framework of the accreditation process of the Czech Institute for Accreditation, o.p.s. The aim is to achieve a level comparable to the international standards for competence testing according to ISO/IEC 17 043 and to create a healthy competitive environment in the field of MPZ solid fuels.
