Software for Implementation of JCGM 106

Abstract

A new guidance document “Evaluation of measurement data • The role of measurement uncertainty in conformity assessment” prepared by the Joint Committee for Guides in Metrology was published in October 2012. The document provides guidance and procedures for determining an acceptance interval, chosen so as to balance the risks associated the consumers and the producers. The Standards and Calibration Laboratory (SCL), Hong Kong Special Administrative Region has developed a software tool that allows easy calculation of the acceptance limits based on the production process, the measurement system capabilities, and the defined consumer or producer risks.
