Good Reasons for Proficiency Testing in Environmental Simulation
Our proficiency tests are carried out by the accredited interlaboratory test provider DRRR carried out and evaluated. Participation in professionally conducted interlaboratory tests brings numerous advantages for your laboratory. Find out more about the good reasons for interlaboratory tests in environmental simulation.
Reduced effort for your laboratory
The planning and implementation of a round robin test requires considerable resources:
We take care of all these steps for you. From secure data collection to the final report, everything is organized centrally so that your laboratory can concentrate fully on daily operations.
Take advantage of this relief and invest your resources efficiently in your core business.
Guaranteed anonymity
In self-organized round robin test, your potential weaknesses may be exposed to participating competitors - a risk to your reputation. On the other hand, the implementation of our ring tests by the DRRR absolute anonymity.
The evaluation is neutral and confidential, without any insight from competitors. Only you can see your result in comparison to the other participants. This way, your quality is protected.
Secure Accreditation
For accredited laboratories, proficiency tests are mandatory – their quality is crucial. Our professional proficiency tests, carried out by the accredited provider DRRR, meet the highest normative requirements in implementation and evaluation – even if our ring tests are not included in the scope of the DRRR accreditation.
We support your recognition by accreditation bodies such as DAkkS, Cofrac, ACCREDIA or UKASE.
Avoid uncertainty and master audits stress-free.
quality assurance and location determination
Round robin tests provide a comprehensive assessment of the quality of your testing laboratory. From the performance of the employees to the testing equipment used and the test execution – every detail is shown. By comparing with other participants, you get a clear assessment of your position.
Use the results of our round robin tests to specifically optimize processes and methods. Develop your measurement uncertainty estimate further and support it with sound evidence.
A round robin test enables the quantified assessment of measurement uncertainty, which is otherwise often only estimated. Use it multiple times to compare processes and test environments and thus gain valuable data to increase your efficiency.
How good are we really? Use these insights to specifically optimize your processes and sustainably increase the quality of your laboratory.
market advantage through quality
Regular round robin tests underline your commitment to quality and convince your customers of the competence of your team and the reliability of your testing equipment.
This will strengthen trust in your laboratory and give you a clear competitive advantage over your competitors.

The final report
– Good reasons for interlaboratory tests in environmental simulation
Each participant receives a final report of a proficiency test. This summarizes the results and findings of the proficiency test that serves to evaluate the performance and quality of laboratories.
The comprehensive final report contains a description of the aim of the interlaboratory test, the laboratories involved, the object of the study and a description of the methodology.
The results of the interlaboratory test are presented in the final report. This includes the collected data, average values and variances. It shows how well the participating laboratories have fulfilled the requirements.
An evaluation is carried out by comparing the results with reference values and accepted tolerance limits. The report provides comprehensive information that you can use to analyze your results in detail and derive targeted improvement measures. Any deviations are analyzed and the causes of incorrect results are investigated.
Finally, you will receive a summary of the key findings, suggestions for improving laboratory practices and, where appropriate, an assessment of the suitability of individual laboratories for specific tests.
The final report serves both to ensure quality and to identify weak points in the processes of the laboratories involved. It is an important tool for continuous improvement and for meeting accreditation requirements.
Of course, the data will be anonymized so that participating laboratories can only draw conclusions about their own results.
