Scientific and technological progress increases the number of measuring instruments and the need for new approaches to their verification and calibration. One of such approaches is discussed in the article. It is based on the article of the Federal Law On ensuring traceability. Results of the measuring instruments calibration made by the accredited bodies or individual entrepreneurs in the area of traceability legal entities can be used for calibration of measuring instruments.
It is shown that the products quality control measurement is an important component for making managerial decisions. One of the criteria for measuring information quality is considered to be timely verification and calibration of measuring instruments. For various reasons, the calibration system was isolated from the verification one. An automated system for remote verification of postal scales is provided as an example of interaction calibration (state regional centers on metrology) and calibration (private) units. Development and implementation of such system is based on technical uniformity of verification procedures and calibration of measuring instruments, as well as the development of information technology. The procedure, technique, technology and order verification is described. Implementation of this technique is now possible thanks to the development and widespread adoption of modern information technology.
The author believes that it is necessary to develop quality control mechanisms for verification activities, including effective model and algorithmization of the control system of business process by calibration laboratory.
