We offer a service that embeds the capabilities and skills required to design and implement validated measurement and inspection processes in a way that meets customer requirements and optimises value to the manufacturer.
Measurement and inspection processes can help manufacturing companies drive efficiencies, optimise business performance and be fully compliant with relevant regulations. However, companies do not always have access to the skills and expertise to implement and manage these processes with confidence. As a result, many are missing out on the opportunities to apply measurement processes that drive innovation and continuous improvement across their business.
Companies working with our measurement experts can increase business and operational performance, driving up revenue, minimising waste and reducing defects and errors. In turn, this can provide their customers with the confidence that all products and services fully meet specified requirements. Our services focus on the application of measurement alongside proven Lean Six Sigma practices. We bring a distinctive approach to understanding variation and what to do about it – analysing if existing systems are adequate and where improvements need to be focused.

We offer independent and impartial measurement good practice expertise underpinned by the credibility and resources we can offer as a National Measurement Institute.
Without highly-accurate dimensional measurement we cannot have confidence in the interchangeability of parts and components, which can impact safety as well as harming global trade. To ensure parts perform as expected, they need to comply with design specifications. We can help you by providing access to a comprehensive suite of independent, high-quality measurement and inspection capabilities.
Industry 4.0 is giving us new opportunities beyond conventional data-driven manufacturing. Trusted data is required for the design of products, running efficient operations and demonstrating compliance. We ensure that you are equipped with the measurement data foundations, analytics and innovations required to benefit from digital manufacturing.
We give industry access to unparalleled equipment and consultancy in mass, force, pressure and density measurement
Our world-leading expertise and research enables innovative improvements in practical and traceable measurement, and is underpinned by realising and disseminating the International Temperature Scale of 1990 (ITS-90)
