Why Is Calibration Important Both From A Technical And Business Perspective?

Calibration is essential from both a technical and business perspective.

• From a technical perspective, calibration ensures that measurements are accurate and reliable. Inaccurate measurements can lead to faulty products, equipment failures, and even safety hazards. For example, an improperly calibrated blood pressure monitor could lead to incorrect readings, resulting in a misdiagnosis or improper treatment.

• From a business perspective, calibration is essential for maintaining customer satisfaction and regulatory compliance. Calibration ensures that products meet quality standards and are safe for consumers. Additionally, regulatory bodies, such as the FDA and EPA, require calibration for compliance with regulations.
