The reliability of analysis results is especially important in forensic laboratories carrying out research for the administration of justice. In many cases, judicial bodies issue verdicts based on such analyses. It is therefore necessary to implement a quality management system in the laboratory. Accreditation is the best way to build and strengthen confidence in the results obtained in laboratories. A certified quality management system brings the laboratory particular benefits. The implementation of requirements stipulated in document ISO/IEC 17025:2005 makes the laboratory’s management system more effective as all requirements in this International Standard have been derived from good laboratory practice. The participation in inter-laboratory research or proficiency tests is one of the most important elements of quality control. These programmes are used to assess the results obtained in the laboratory. They may also lead to the improvement of procedures and methods by comparing the results between laboratories.
