Conformity assessment – General requirements for peer assessment of conformity assessment bodies and accreditation bodies

OVERVIEW

Specifies the general requirements for the peer assessment process to be carried out by agreement groups of accreditation bodies or conformity assessment bodies. Addresses the structure and operation of the agreement group only insofar as they relate to the peer assessment process.

Does not cover the wider issues of the arrangements for the formation, organisation and management of the agreement group and how the group will use peer assessment in deciding membership of the group. Such matters, which could for example include a procedure for applicants to appeal against decisions of the agreement group, are outside the scope of this standard.
