For accredited bodies

Objective proof of quality and competence for the activities of conformity assessment bodies according to international standards

Competitive advantages over non-accredited market participants

For companies

Better acceptance of products and services eases market access or makes it possible

Proof of competence facilitates the selection of a suitable service provider for the conformity assessment of goods and services

For consumers

more consumer trust in the quality of products and services - notwithstanding a complex global market fewer production errors or recalls

Accreditation throughout the market chain is increasingly important. The business world we live in is growing quickly and is highly complex with many inspectors and certifiers operating without accreditation. This is risky for all players, right through to the ultimate consumer.

Without accreditation there is no certainty that goods and services can be depended upon. On the other hand, accreditation provides certainty in a world where standardisation and certification are an integral part of the global economy. And it supports trade and commerce.

IMAB offers accreditation for these themes to support economy, industry and the community to achieve their goals
