AQCLab maintains its commitment with quality by renewing its accreditation for software and data quality evaluation tests in conformance with ISO/IEC 25000 for the characteristics Maintainability, Functional Suitability and Data Quality.
Accreditation conforming to the ISO/IEC 17025 standard confirms the technical competence of the laboratory and ensures reliability in the results of the tests performed. To do so, the accreditation body ENAC performs a thorough evaluation of all the factors that contributing to laboratories obtaining reliable results: qualification of personnel, appropriate and validated methods and procedures, adequacy of equipment and infrastructure, techniques for quality evaluation of the results, etc.
Based on the results of the evaluations carried out by AQCLab, our customers can obtain a software product quality certification in conformance with ISO/IEC 25000, issued by AENOR. Among the companies that have recently certified the quality of their software products or their data are ICEMD, which has obtained the first certificate for Data Quality, and SICAMAN-NT, which has certified the Functional Suitability of their product MARISMA 2.0.

ICEMD (Instituto de la Economía Digital de ESIC) has obtained the first ISO/IEC 25012 certificate worldwide for Data Quality. The certificate, issued by AENOR, has been granted for the Data Product DATOS DE USUARIOS DE LA PLATAFORMA DE ICEMD (Data of Users of the ICEMD Platform), after the accredited laboratory AQCLab evaluated the quality characteristics accuracy, completeness, consistency, credibility and currentness.
To carry out the certification, AENOR collaborates with AQCLab, the first laboratory in Spain accredited by ENAC (Spanish Accreditation Body) to carry out software and data quality evaluation tests, such as the Evaluation of Data Quality.
The Evaluation of Data Quality provides the following advantages:

SICAMAN Nuevas Tecnologías has obtained the ISO/IEC 25000 - Functional Suitability certification issued by AENOR for its software product MARISMA 2.0. For this, this product has reached the highest quality level (5) in the Functional Suitability evaluation performed by the accredited laboratory AQCLab
This certification has been made possible thanks to the collaboration between AENOR, AQCLab and SICAMAN-NT, following the software product evaluation and certification process. Thus, AQCLab has evaluated the software product MARISMA 2.0 and has supported SICAMAN-NT in improving its quality to achieve ISO/IEC 25000 certification.
The product MARISMA 2.0 is a tool that allows companies to streamline risk analysis and dynamically manage the evolution of their business risks in a simple and optimal way.
Through Functional Suitability evaluation, it can be ensured that a software product complies fully and correctly with the specified requirements. In addition, the evaluation of the Functional Suitability helps to improve customer confidence and satisfaction, as well as being a differentiating element from the competition.
