1998 Testing Laboratory Guide
by Dirk Dusharme and Laurel Thoennes
Welcome to Quality Digest's 1998 Testing Laboratory Guide. This year's guide features 225 labs; if you need to test it, probe it, prod it, zap it, fry it, freeze it, nuke it or smash it, you'll find someone in this guide who'll do it for you.
The services directory, which you can download by clicking here, provides testing categories, beneath which are listed testing labs that provide that service. Labs may also have listed other testing services that they provide; these are included in the company directory that follows the service listings.
The company directory also includes the lab's telephone and fax numbers, Web address, whether the lab's test equipment is NIST-traceable, and whether the lab is ISO 9000-registered, conforms to ISO/IEC Guide 25 and is a CE competent body.
This guide only partially represents the thousands of testing labs currently available around the country. For more information on testing labs, try visiting these excellent sources on the Web:
