What is ISO/TR 16476 - Metrological traceability of quantity values assigned to reference materials about?
ISO/TR 16476 report investigates, discusses, and specifies further, the general principles of establishing traceability of measurement results laid down in the Joint BIPM, OIML, ILAC and ISO Declaration on Metrological Traceability, in particular for values assigned to (certified) reference materials.
Note-
The developed approach is exemplified for measurement procedures not covered earlier by other guidance documents on the topic.
Who is ISO/TR 16476 - Metrological traceability of quantity values assigned to reference materials for?
ISO/TR 16476 on metrological traceability of quantity values assigned to reference materials is useful for:
- Biomedical laboratories  
- Regulatory authorities 
- Notified bodies
- Chemical industries
Why should you use ISO/TR 16476 - Metrological traceability of quantity values assigned to reference materials?
Reference materials (RM), in particular when certified (CRM), are a major tool for assuring the quality and reliability of results obtained in measurement and testing.
ISO/TR 16476 provides principles for, and requirements to, the traceability of (C)RM, in particular with a specific view to the current definition of metrological traceability given by the Vocabulary of International Metrology (VIM), edition 3, 2007. Also, specifies metrological traceability to established, demonstrated, and reported on certificates is, therefore, a question of primary importance, mainly for RM producers.
Overall, ISO/TR 16476 helps you for assessing the trueness of a measurement procedure as implemented in a laboratory, also establish traceability of the measurement result
