If you have a need to evaluate information technology or information software tools, instruments, materials or devices, we recommend that you contact one of the independent testing laboratories. It is difficult to list the areas in which testing laboratories operate, the range of their services is so extensive. This includes electrical measurements, strength testing and other qualities of building materials, evaluation of software, examination of metals, and much, much more. Different types of laboratories operate in different areas. But all testing laboratories, no matter what type of research they are engaged in, must be organized in accordance with a special regulatory document - the regulations on the testing laboratory. This provision is developed for all testing laboratories separately, and it reflects the list of objects and types of analysis for which this institution is accredited. It should also indicate the composition of the laboratory, its divisions, who is in charge, the duties and responsibilities of the laboratory members, the relationship of the laboratory with other organizations, etc. In their work, testing laboratories strictly adhere to the legislation in force in the state, all standards and methodological documentation of the institution by which it was accredited, as well as decrees, orders and recommendations of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation. If the laboratory is organized on the territory of a university or research institute, and is part of these institutions, then it is also subject to the governing documents issued by this institution. Almost all independent laboratories cooperate in one way or another with other scientific institutions, organizations, and government agencies. Interaction can occur on issues of accreditation, certification of instruments and equipment of the laboratory, monitoring its activities, and finally, the exchange of information and experience with other laboratories whose activities are in the same field. But it should be remembered that, according to the law, neither public nor private structures or organizations can put pressure on the activities of an independent laboratory related to research and conclusions at the client’s request. Therefore, the customer can be confident that he will receive objective results of the analysis carried out by an unbiased person. Laboratory employees treat all customers equally, without prioritizing or discriminating - and this is one of the basic principles on which the activities of independent laboratories are built. All independent testing laboratories provide their services on a contract basis. The customer can submit an application (in some cases, its wording is clarified by laboratory specialists), and by paying for the appropriate type of research, consultations with specialists, he receives a competent expert opinion on the issue of interest to him. All types of tests, research and analyzes are the scientific product of the laboratory, which it sells to the customer. There are many types of testing laboratories, there is a heat and cold chamber , among them there are even flying laboratories that are designed to test devices, substances or materials under special conditions. Such testing laboratories are located on airplanes, the space station, and other aircraft. So, for example, in test laboratories located on aircraft, new engine models, instruments, individual parts of structures, etc. are examined and tested for reliability.
