FCC Rules, Section 2.948(d) states:

"(d)  A laboratory that has been accredited with a scope covering the required
measurements shall be deemed competent to test and submit test data for
equipment subject to verification, Declaration of Conformity, and
certification.  Such a laboratory shall be accredited by an approved
accreditation organization based on the International Organization for
Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission (ISO/IEC) Standard
17025, "General Requirements for the Competence of Calibration and Testing
Laboratories."  "

9001 is a "say what you do, do what you say" document.  17025 goes deeper into
"stuff" that must be documented for a test or calibration lab.

Subject: ISO9001:2008 and ISO17025

For the requirements of 7.6, in ISO9001, I can not find any phrase that says
17025 shall be the normative reference.

What is the basis for a registrar to require use of 17025 when I can indicate
process and document compliance with 4.2.4 and 7.6 a) ?

Related question - Does allowing 9001 to expire for the design facility effect
the 9001 registrar audit of the factory ?

thanks much,
Brian
