International Forensic Laboratory Development Programs
Forensic Laboratory Design
Designing a forensic laboratory is unique. Although forensic laboratories include many of the same instruments and analysis areas as research, pharmaceutical or academic laboratories, the objective of the laboratory creates unique challenges.
Forensic Laboratory Development
Development requirements for forensic laboratories in post-conflict developing democracies are often challenging. Our advisors’ implement programs compatible with the level of technology that is sustainable by the project country.
Forensic Laboratory Accreditation
Accurate and valid examination results in the forensic laboratory cannot be overstated. Invalid or inaccurate examinations lead to more trials, appeals and create doubt in the criminal justice system. ISO 17025 Laboratory accreditation creates confidence in the results of evidence examination.
Forensic Laboratory Assessment
PBSI conducts laboratory assessments in our laboratory design and accreditation projects. In laboratory design projects, assessment answer questions like: Why is a new lab needed? What would a new lab or analytical area cost?
In laboratory accreditation projects, assessments identify the impact of certification requirements. They also identify non-value processes, inefficient systems and lack of policies and procedures.
