AUDITING
If you operate a non-certified biobank and/or want to ensure that your stored samples meet specific quality standards, our QM team is here to help. We offer peer-review-style audits upon request, guiding you through the steps to improve your quality management practices.
Take the next step toward obtaining the BBMRI-ERIC Quality Label:
- Start by assessing your biobank operations with the BBMRI-ERIC Self-Assessment Survey (SAS).
- After completing the SAS, you can request a BBMRI-ERIC audit.
- If the audit is successful, your biobank will receive a Quality Label in the BBMRI-ERIC Directory.
CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT
Brings together a wider BBMRI community in the form of a Task Force to set Quality Assurance Markers for biobanking.
It’s all about sample quality
If we want researchers to be able to produce reliable findings, we need to make sure that they have access to high-quality samples. As a European research infrastructure, our ultimate goal is to make samples comparable across different countries and different biobanking systems. To that end, BBMRI-ERIC provides a range of quality management services catering to different needs.
We are well aware that although all our partner biobanks strive to improve their quality management systems, not all of them might have the resources to obtain a certificate from an accredited certification body. This is where BBMRI-ERIC comes into play. Our quality management services are designed to guide biobanks and laboratories step by step towards excellence.
