Our Specialty: Measurement Uncertainty Analysis

.

Quametec is widely known for our ISO/IEC 17025 Uncertainty Analysis requirement solutions! Our focus on the requirements, combined with our renowned software tool Uncertainty Toolbox, makes the task of computing measurement uncertainty in compliance with ISO 17025 easy and efficient, and has made QUAMETEC the leading choice for commercial uncertainty analysis solutions.

.

Currently well over 800 accredited laboratories and several national laboratories internationally are using Uncertainty Toolbox™, with several new laboratories being added to our satisfied clients list each month. QUAMETEC also provides hands-on measurement uncertainty training for assessors of various accreditation bodies as well as for those seeking to become accredited. The Quametec uncertainty training class is the only class in the industry with a learning guarantee and FREE student analysis review!

.

A recent survey of laboratories that have purchased Uncertainty Toolbox™ revealed that 100% of the registered users we were able to contact are still using our tool to meet their ISO/IEC17025 accreditation requirements. Many of these users told us that they had purchased one or more of our competitors products prior to buying ours, but have never used them successfully in meeting the requirements for one reason or another. Assessors attending our uncertainty workshops have told us that they encounter our software more often than any of our competitors when assessing labs for compliance. Many of them decided to purchase our software or attend our workshop after they encountered our software while performing an assessment.

.

Don't be fooled by flashy advertising or misleading comparison charts created by competitors that fail to address the many features our software has that theirs doesn't, such as "Measurement Range Uncertainty Estimation", at time of this posting, ours is still the ONLY software with this common practical approach used by many National Labs. It should be obvious that a fair and balanced evaluation of products can NOT be provided by one whom has a vested interest in one of the products.

.

We highly recommend that you call references before you choose anyone's uncertainty estimation products or services. Quametec products are developed by an ISO/IEC17025 assessor trainer with over 20 years of metrology management experience. They are designed specifically to meet the accreditation requirements in an efficient and effective manner. Most new clients are referred to us by our many other satisfied clients or by their consultant; although if you are new to Quametec, we would be happy to provide you numerous references with contact names and phones numbers for any of our services or products. Call 1-810-225-8588 and Karen, our Customer Service Manager, would be happy to provide you with a list via fax or email.
