1999 Calibration Software
and Services Buyers Guide

You rely on your calibration equipment to monitor the quality of your product, but what can you trust to monitor the quality of your calibration equipment? Our 1999 Calibration Software and Services Buyers Guide may have the answer, whether your goal is to meet ISO 9000 requirements for calibration control or simply to ensure that your testing equipment is receiving the maintenance it needs to function properly.

Correct, up-to-date calibration records help ensure that all testing equipment is accurate and that test results are reliable and traceable to a test standard. The right calibration software makes it easier to document and control calibration equipment, saving companies time and money and offering a definite advantage to organizations with internal quality programs such as ISO 9000.

Most calibration software is designed to control and collect data directly from a test instrument, analyze test result data, or manage labs by allowing users to track calibration histories via a relational database. Some products are able to perform all three functions. Although most commercial software is pre-packaged and ready to use, some companies provide customized software solutions for their customers. Numerous software packages offer different capabilities for each specialization. Our guide includes companies that sell software for equipment calibration or calibration tracking.

The following pages also list companies that provide calibration services at a variety of sites for everything from gage blocks to humidity measuring instruments. You may find it more cost-effective for your company to outsource equipment calibration than to incur the equipment and labor expenses of performing and tracking equipment calibration in-house. When selecting an outside supplier, consider such factors as lab accreditation, traceable calibration standards, fair pricing and quick turnaround.

This guide is in no way meant to endorse or exclude any particular organization. To ensure the accuracy of our listings, we only give details provided directly to us from the vendor. Each company has supplied contact information and a short description of its available calibration software or services. Companies that provide software and services appear under both headings.

As with our other buyers guides, we'll gladly respond to reader feedback and will continue to refine the format and type of information included here. If you have any comments about this guide, please contact us by telephone at (530) 893-4095, by fax at (530) 893-0395 or by e-mail at calservice@qualitydigest.com .

Once you have located a company in the Software or Services categories, use your browsers "find" function to locate the company in the directory.
