About UKAS | Schedule

The United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) is the sole national accreditation body recognized by the British government to assess the competence of organisations that provide certification, testing, inspection and calibration services. It evaluates these conformity assessment bodies and then accredits them when they are found to meet relevant internationally specified standards. UKAS assesses conformity assessment bodies for competence against internationally recognised standards. It validates the competence of organisations to provide conformity assessment tasks and issues accreditation certificates and schedules showing the limits of the accreditation for a particular conformity assessment body. It permits the use of the UKAS mark on accredited certification if it includes a UKAS accreditation number.
