In January 2026, JQA Calibration Vietnam Co., Ltd. (JQACV) hosted a practical seminar in Hanoi, Vietnam, for the manufacturing industry under the theme “Measurement Management, Calibration, and Quality Assurance.”
Approximately 130 participants, primarily from Japanese-affiliated companies, attended the seminar, demonstrating strong interest in instrument calibration, measurement training and management, uncertainty evaluation, and the implementation of ISO/IEC 17025.
The seminar systematically covered topics ranging from the fundamentals of measurement management that can be immediately applied on the manufacturing floor to the significance of calibration, the concept of measurement uncertainty, guard band setting, and the practical application of ISO/IEC 17025.
Common Challenges in Measurement, Calibration, and Quality Control Facing Vietnam’s Manufacturing Industry
Vietnam is rapidly emerging as a global manufacturing hub for automotive and electronic components. However, as precision requirements continue to rise, the development of robust measurement management systems and skilled human resources has not fully kept pace. Participating companies identified the following common challenges: ▲ Insufficient systematic training for measurement personnel ▲ Limited understanding of the purpose of measurement on the production floor ▲ Insufficient awareness of the concept of measurement uncertainty ▲ Lack of understanding of how to interpret and utilize calibration certificates ▲ Insufficient understanding of ISO/IEC 17025 requirements These issues may result in quality incidents, excessive quality, and increased costs.
