All, I am shopping for a service that provides administration of calibrations. I need this because I cannot spend the resources to administrate this myself. I would like to get opinions from anyone who uses these services so I can establish their track record. I realize that the scope each lab has is limited so I expect them to be able to work with other labs for special services and manage all the logistics. Although I don't think any single lab can provide all, here is my wishlist:
* Located in North America (U.S.A. preferred). * Calibrations for: Voltage (up to 40kV - hipot), current probes (up to 2000A; 0.3%), current shunts (up to 2000A; 0.1%), temperature, humidity, pressure, torque, caliper, mass, EMC instruments, test/inspection pins, feeler gauges, acoustic, and others. * Accreditation to ISO 17025 and able to provide fully accredited instrument calibrations with data and uncertainties included. * Automatic calibration recall notices provided. * On certain pieces of equipment, I need turn around times of 5 days, using overnight shipments and pre-scheduling of calibrations. * Ability to pay a premium expedite fee if needed to obtain quick turns. * Dock-to-Dock shipping for sensitive equipment, no routing from lab to lab to lab. * My existing corporate discounts passed through the invoicing process. * An online database with certificate downloads.
