The mission of Subcommittee #7 – Certification of Test Facilities
is ultimately to improve the consistency and quality of crash test methods
and measurement results between test laboratories. As recommended to the Federal
Highway Administration, this mission quest requires crash test laboratories
to become accredited by a third-party accreditation organization conforming
to the general requirements of ISO Guide 58. Also central to this mission
is the establishment of, and participation in, an interlaboratory collaboration
and proficiency test program between crash test laboratories. Proficiency
testing is also an important component of third party accreditation.
