ISO/IEC 17025:2017 is still in transition. ALAB has adopted the ILAC recommendations for transition timeframe and our policy is for all labs to be accredited to the new Standard in accordance with ILAC and APAC policies. Currently the deadline is 1st June 2021 (6-month extension due to COVID-19 restrictions). That might seem like a long way off - but as we all know, time flies! ALAB is able to provide special gap-assessments to labs who are still transitioning their own systems
