Description
The final report summarizes the results of a Pre-Measurement Workshop organised for staff from measurement institutes and laboratories to share knowledge on several indicators, and was followed by an accuracy-based PT (APEC PT) that provided an opportunity for participating institutes and laboratories to apply their knowledge acquired from the Pre-Measurement Workshop, to identify trace elements in a water matrix and thereby assess and enhance their measurement capabilities.
This allowed participants to benchmark their performance with reference values from metrology institutes with relevant Calibration and Measurement Capability claims as well as to identify any gaps for future actions.
Results of a Post-measurement Workshop is also described where APMP and SIM experts reviewed the results of the APEC PT with participants from developing economies and help address any identified issues.
The project provided a capacity building framework that enabled participants to achieve global comparability of performance via established accreditation and measurement frameworks.
