Episode 5
ISO 10012 and ISO 9001: complement, not complication
Metrology is often relegated to a secondary role within quality management systems. Yet it plays a central role in process control and the reliability of decision-making.
In this new episode, we explore the link between ISO 9001 and ISO 10012, focusing on the measurement process — a topic that is still too rarely addressed, including in current discussions around the revision of ISO 9001.
To discuss this topic, we spoke with Grégory Charpentier, Liaison Representative between ISO/TC 176 SC3 (ISO 10012) and ISO/TC 176 SC2 (ISO 9001), directly involved in the standardisation work.
This episode is intended for those who wish to:
better understand the complementarities between standards,
restore the full importance of measurement within management systems,
strengthen the robustness of their quality practices.
Episode 4
Understanding Measurement Uncertainty
Ignoring uncertainty is like playing Russian roulette with compliance.
Measurement uncertainties influence far more than we think: technical decisions, regulatory compliance, product quality… yet they often remain poorly understood.
In this episode, metrology expert Mohammed Megharfi helps bring clarity. He offers a concrete definition of measurement uncertainty, presents accessible calculation methods, and shares practical examples drawn from industrial environments.
An essential listen to better control your measurement results—and your decisions:
