How to compare
Quality Infrastructure
between countries?
Open data on Quality Infrastructure
The GQII program is an initiative of the independent consulting firms Mesopartner and Analyticar to research and disseminate data on Quality Infrastructure.
By Quality Infrastructure we mean the international system of metrology, standardisation, accreditation and quality-related services (testing, calibration, inspection, verification, training and awareness building) that creates confidence in international trade and contributes to the protection of consumers and the environment.
The GQII is a database and ranking that allows interested persons to compare the quality infrastructure of different countries worldwide.
This website is intended to provide information about the GQII and will be continuously expanded.
