REGISTERED COMPANY ADDRESS OF SUPPLIER: 1 Cabot Business Village, Holyrood Close, Poole, Dorset, BH17 7BA
NAME OF CUSTOMER: as detailed in the quotation  ADDRESS OF CUSTOMER: as detailed in the quotation
DESCRIPTION OF GOODS: Test and measuring equipment and associated accessories.

The equipment will be calibrated on settings, ranges and points with uncertainty of measurements and tolerances decided by the supplier, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that this is suitable and relevant to the customers requirements (detailed information for individual equipment of ranges and points with uncertainty of measurements and tolerances available upon request). It is the customers responsibility to inform the supplier of any specific requirements before commencement of the service an amended quotation will be raised, unless otherwise requested and where practicable and if requested by the customer, a calibration label will be attached to the equipment, the application of the label does not denote compliance or non compliance to a standard or specification, it shows the date of calibration, and reference number of the associated calibration certificate, and the recalibration date (if requested by the customer)

When statements of compliance / non-compliance with a specification are made for ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibrations, the uncertainty of measurement is taken into account.  In cases where the calibration uncertainty is larger than the tolerance it is not possible to make a statement of compliance therefore ‘N/A’ will be shown as the compliance statement. For temperature and electrical calibrations the assessments of conformance statement decision rule is made in accordance with section 4.2.3 of ILAC-G8:09/2019 Non-Binary Statement with a guard band w = U-measurement uncertainty (pass, conditional pass, conditional fail or fail) For all other ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibrations the compliance statement is based on a binary decision rule 4.2.1 of ILAC-G8:09/2019 Binary Statement with simple acceptance w = 0 (pass or fail). For screw gauge calibration Flank Angles, and Pitch (lead) are not routinely measured, it is the responsibility of the customer to request these measurements if they are a requirement.

The re-calibration frequency of equipment is the responsibility of the customer, and shall be communicated to the supplier if required. For equipment serviced and calibrated where the manufacturer recommends a maximum service interval, this will be used in absence of customer instruction, however it is the responsibility of the customer to assess if this interval is relevant for the equipment use. For customers with web portal access the calibration frequency applied will be the frequency used from the previous calibration. The supplier will use this calibration frequency where available to print recalibration due dates onto calibration labels.

CALIBRATION MEANING: Calibration refers to applying known values to an instrument or equipment and recording the result on a calibration certificate. Calibration does not include, service, adjustment, replacement or repair. The supplier has the right not to perform calibration for any instrument supplied or requested. A calibration label placed on the equipment does not indicate pass or fail status to any acceptance criteria, it is only a reference to the date calibrated, the certificate and the calibration due date (if included) When statements of compliance / non-compliance with a specification are made on ISO/IEC17025:2017 calibration certificates, the uncertainty of measurement is taken into account. When the calibration is performed, the equipment being calibrated may not function correctly or results obtained may not meet the required acceptance criteria, the calibration charge will apply in all circumstances, a calibration certificate for equipment that does not meet the acceptance criteria will be issued, this enables a failed instrument risk assessment to be performed by the customer. For portable equipment using rechargeable batteries, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure the equipment is fully charged before submitting for calibration, failure to do so may result in calibration delay and extra cost. For portable equipment using non rechargeable batteries, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure the equipment is fitted with new batteries before submitting for calibration, if it is deemed the batteries have not been replaced or are not suitable, the supplier will replace the batteries with new and charge the customer accordingly.

DESCRIPTION AND SCOPE OF SERVICES: Sales service, calibration and repair of measuring and test equipment, The customer will deliver the goods for service, calibration or repair to the supplier adequately packaged for the purpose of safe transportation using the means chosen by the customer. The supplier will notify the customer within 12 hours of receipt (excluding weekends) if a received shipment of goods appears to have received damage in transit or items appear to be missing. The supplier will not be responsible for the condition of goods received from the customer however delivered.

For flue gas analyser service and calibration, the customer will provide the supplier with the flue probe with the analyser. The flue probe forms an integral part of the analyser measuring system and will be calibrated and serviced at the same time as the analyser for no extra charge (excluding any parts that may be necessary). Flue probes not serviced with an analyser will carry an extra service charge plus any parts that may be required and return carriage, a certificate of calibration will be issued for each flue probe serviced without an analyser, in the event the flue probe fails the calibration, the service charge is payable for the probe, and the customer will receive a calibration certificate as evidence of the failure the service charge may be waived if the probe fails and a new probe is purchased from Compli Group Ltd.  For service, calibration or repair of Electrical test equipment, the customer will supply test leads with instruments, if the test leads fail, it will be recorded on the calibration certificate, and the instrument will be calibrated with alternate test leads. It is the responsibility of the customer to charge or replace batteries on all portable battery operated test equipment, failure to do so may incur costs and service delays to replace or recharge batteries. The calibration charge will be paid in full by the customer irrespective if the equipment passes or fails calibration, all equipment submitted for calibration that has been charged for will be returned with a calibration certificate detailing the results. Calibration certificates for failed equipment enable the customer to perform a failed equipment risk assessment.
