  Testing and calibration laboratories play a critical role in industries such as pharmaceuticals, automotive, aerospace, power and food safety. For these organizations, NABL accreditation is more than a certificate it demonstrates technical competence, impartiality and reliability of test and calibration results. Many laboratories face  ISO 17025 audit non-conformities  during assessments. These often include incomplete documentation, outdated calibration records, insufficient evidence of staff competence or weak ISO 17025 internal audits. In some cases, laboratories treat this certification as a paperwork requirement rather than a living management system, resulting in recurring compliance issues and failed outcomes. Every non-conformity has consequences. It can undermine credibility, weaken customer trust and even jeopardize contracts with regulators, certification bodies or global clients. By understanding the common non-conformities in ISO 17025 and adopting corr...

    Why BRSR Outcomes Diverge Even When Disclosures Look Similar Across listed organizations, the BRSR framework is uniform. The questions are standardized. The disclosures follow the same format. Yet outcomes differ in meaningful ways. Some organizations build sustained regulatory confidence, retain investor trust, and face limited follow up on their disclosures. Others, despite submitting reports that appear equally complete, encounter repeated clarifications, deeper scrutiny, or quiet skepticism around the reliability of their sustainability narrative. These differences are rarely explained by reporting quality alone. In practice, they can usually be traced back to how leadership governs sustainability and risk in day-to-day decision making, not how well those decisions are documented later. Over time, BRSR performance reflects what leadership consistently reinforces, challenges, or allows to continue. In that sense, BRSR performance is not a reporting outc...
