In a world that is making great strides towards globalization, the free movement of goods, people and services has become indispensable. However, the removal of trade barriers must necessarily be based on the certainty that the products and services traded meet the specific requirements. Consumers demand confidence in the quality of products and services, their primary concern being health and safety, and want to live in an environment that is safe and secure. Companies need assurance that conformity attestations (test\/calibration\/inspection reports, certificates and similar documents) on which their business is based are reliable.<\/p>\n
Regulatory agencies must be assured that assessments of compliance with regulatory requirements are carried out effectively and with all required competencies. In this context, it is essential to promote the trust of economic actors as well as the authorities in charge of market control with regard to documents issued by conformity assessment bodies (laboratories, inspection, certification, verification and validation bodies). These documents thus become true technical passports associated with a product or a service.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
Accreditation to international standards means that the tests, certifications and inspections are recognized at the international level, which reinforces the competitiveness of Ghanaian companies.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
Accreditation to international standards means that the reports and certificates accompanying exported goods are more readily accepted internationally. This cuts out duplicate testing procedures on each side of the border, reducing costs and saving transit time.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
Accreditation to international standards means living up to the highest standards. Quality issues should be detected before the goods and services reach the market, hence protecting the health and safety of the consumers as well as protecting the environment.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
