Keywords:IANZ is New Zealand’s premier accreditation body. An organisation that holds IANZ accreditation can have confidence in its processes and thereby provide assurance to its customers and clients.
IANZ is part of the Testing Laboratory Registration Council, an autonomous Crown entity established in 1972. IANZ is a full signatory member of the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) and the regional body, Asia Pacific Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (APLAC).
Protecting and enhancing New Zealand trade
IANZ works closely with government agencies in the development of international trading opportunities for New Zealand exporters. Input on technical aspects of policy and standards is provided to assist Government with international trade development.
Definition of accreditation
Accreditation means formal recognition that an organisation has been independently assessed by an authoritative accreditation body in five key areas:
Competence and experience of staff
Integrity and traceability of equipment and materials
Technical validity of methods
Validity and suitability of results
Compliance with appropriate management systems standards and found to be competent to carry out its services in a professional, reliable and efficient manner
Accredited organisations are entitled to issue certificates of compliance. These certificates may take the form of test or inspection reports – as is the case for IANZ accredited laboratories, inspection bodies and radiology services.
