Why should your business have an interest in metrology? If the goal of your business is to make a quality product or service, and ultimately a profit, then metrology has a direct impact on your business. Metrology is the science of measurement, and measurements are critical to industry.

All science and technology activities are involved in creating new and unique directions for measurement innovation to transpire. Whether you work in a commercial calibration or testing laboratory, National Metrology Institute, accreditation agency, or measurement & test equipment manufacturing facility, consider the measurement innovations that have occurred or will occur in your work environment in the 21st century.
