Training for In-house Testing Personnel of BIS License Holders

Training for In-house Testing Personnel of BIS License Holders

Before obtaining a BIS license, applicants must demonstrate to the BIS auditor that their testing personnel have the necessary competence to test products in compliance with relevant Indian Standards. Praditha Engineers offers specialized, on-the-job training tailored to both engineering and non-engineering products, providing essential knowledge and skills needed for the initial BIS audit and for maintaining compliance with the BIS Certification Marks License.

Often overlooked, proper product testing is critical for market compliance. Inadequate testing can lead to failures in BIS market surveillance, resulting in severe penalties such as suspension or cancellation of the license. Our product-specific training, delivered by experienced experts, ensures that testing personnel acquire the skills to accurately conduct tests, including:

• Training at All Stages: Training covers testing of raw materials from vendors, in-process materials, finished products, sampling plans, sample preparation, test equipment usage, calibration importance, and precise interpretation of test results.
• Standard and Compliance Training: Quality control personnel receive instruction on interpreting standard requirements, grouping guidelines, and preparing corrective actions in case of failures.

With more products becoming mandatory under the Quality Control Orders (QCO), any testing failures whether during factory testing or market surveillance can lead to license suspension and production halts, causing financial losses. Beyond mere qualifications, testing personnel need in-depth knowledge and skills specific to product testing to avoid such risks.

Skilled testing personnel enhance a company’s competitive edge, building trust with customers, consumers, and government procurement agencies who value laboratories that consistently uphold high standards and a commitment to continuous improvement.
