Small Laboratory TNI Standard Implementation Series
Part 2 – The Management Requirements

The second part of the series will review what the Standard requires for policies and procedures to support running the method. These requirements manage feedback mechanisms from staff, clients and others. These items require the laboratory to describe the organization and management of the operation, how to purchase from suppliers and contract with clients, and control work when it does not meet regulatory or method requirements.

About the Small Laboratory TNI Standard Implementation Series
The NELAC Institute, in cooperation with Advanced Systems, Inc., provided a series of (10) 2-hour webcasts that show how to implement the Standard. All size laboratories can implement the 2009/2016 TNI Environmental Laboratory Standard. The key is understanding the Standard and documenting what you do in your everyday work.

Running a laboratory is more than just performing the method. There are other operations that require management such as buying supplies, handling customer inquiries, receiving and disposing of samples, ensuring the competency of personnel, and keeping equipment running, plus others. What is needed and how these operations are performed is up to you.

Do you want to make sure you have considered all parts of the operation? Then use the TNI Environmental Laboratory Standard as your road map.
