NATA is one of the largest laboratory accreditation bodies in the world and is responsible for the accreditation of laboratories, inspection bodies, calibration services, producers of certified reference materials and proficiency testing scheme providers throughout Australia.

Surveillance visits will be performed every 18 months to ensure continued compliance with requirements and maintain our standing with NATA.
