[October 24th 2023] Bureau Veritas has announced the successful accreditation to ISO 17025 and government approval of its latest wireless lab in Hanoi, Vietnam. Representatives from the Vietnam’s Ministry of Information and Communications (“MIC”) audited and approved the lab, one of the most comprehensive labs of its’ kind in Southeast Asia.
The approval means the laboratory can begin providing testing and compliance services to Bureau Veritas technology clients around the world.
To earn accreditation and government approval, the lab was assessed in its ability to consistently produce accurate testing results, and implementation of a rigorous quality management system. It also required lab personnel to be vastly competent to perform all testing within the lab’s scope.
Backdropped by a growing consumer electronics market, Vietnam’s Technology industry continues to evolve with many of the world’s largest brands expanding their manufacturing and R&D footprint in the country. Bureau Veritas' Hanoi wireless lab is ideally located to support these businesses to penetrate Vietnam’s domestic consumer market.
Mr. Nicolas Ribes, General Manager of Bureau Veritas CPS Technology in South and Southeast Asia commented, “Approval and accreditation from MIC is the final step for our lab in Hanoi to begin providing testing services to our clients, a critical step leap in the development of our technology business in the region. The lab features a wide range of EMC and RF services, facilitated in some of the latest chambers. I look forward to continuing the partnership with our clients and maintaining our role as a key growth enabler in the evolution of the wireless world in South East Asia."
