Abstract
The foresight of the authors of the early quality standards and their acceptance by UK Industry has established the UK as a world leader in the registration of Companies to ISO 9000 and accreditation of laboratories to EN 45001. The evolution of quality standards for calibration systems has given an important impetus and status to the field of metrology which in turn has greatly strengthened the standing of the UK National Measurement System and those working in it
