Network on uncertainty in testing

Objective



The assessment and use of uncertainties in tests results are important problem areas in the implementation of the Community policies, due to varying traditions and needs of interested parties as laboratories, authorities and accreditation bodies, and standardizations.
The proposed network is composed of partners representing the main organizations of these interested parties. The aim is to find consensus between these parties about the main directions, enabling them to perform their development in a harmonized way.
Accreditation bodies should design their guidelines and requirements in a way that is well adjusted to the market needs. The laboratories should be able to direct their research, e.g for the S, M&T Programme, in an optimal way to resolve technical problems. Uncertainty estimates should be part of the verification of written standards.
The work of the network consists of coordination and dissemination of knowledge and points of view among large numbers of experts covered in this way. The means are meetings and written and oral communications organized in the network. The deliverables are reports and position papers forming a basis for harmonized activities in the groups of interested parties. During the (three) year duration it is foreseen that the network will evolve, and it most be conceived that network will continue after this period in some form.
The organization of the network is such that it, through the use of sector groups, covers all EU countries and a large number of end users.
