For inspection bodies

Equipment calibration records for ISO/IEC 17020 inspection bodies

ISO/IEC 17020 sets the requirements for the competence of bodies performing inspection. The equipment an inspection body relies on to reach a finding must be controlled, calibrated where it affects results, and traceable. Axiospec gives inspection bodies one system to identify each instrument, capture its calibration against traceable standards, and produce the equipment records an assessor expects to follow.

What ISO/IEC 17020 asks of your inspection equipment

Clause 6.2: Facilities & equipment

Equipment that significantly affects inspection results must be identified, calibrated where required, and traceable to measurement standards, with records kept.

Calibration status & intermediate checks

Equipment must carry an identifiable calibration status, and intermediate checks should be performed and recorded where they maintain confidence in the equipment.

Records

Records of equipment, calibration, and checks must be retained, attributable, and protected from unauthorized change.

How Axiospec helps ISO/IEC 17020 teams

Every instrument identified and controlled

Keep one live registry of every piece of inspection equipment with its status, interval, and history, so equipment that affects results is always under control.

Traceable calibration on the asset

Record the reference standard and certificate behind each calibration so traceability to measurement standards is visible on the instrument.

Intermediate checks captured alongside calibrations

Log checks from any web browser or the mobile app, even offline in the field, so the confidence-maintaining checks 17020 expects are documented where the work happens.

Audit-ready records in one click

Calibrations and checks are written to a tamper-evident ledger with attribution and timestamps, then exported as a complete pack for any instrument.
