The Office of DAP German Accreditation System for Testing is located in the MEDIACITY Berlin Adlershof,
see overall map and traffic connections as well as
detailed map und hotel recommendations.
On December 8th, 1988 the Federal Ministry of
Economic Affairs founded the BAM Accreditation System (BAS). This led to the creation of the DAP German
Accreditation System for Testing in April 1990. The DAP was listed as a limited liability company in the
Commercial Register on August 31st, 1994.
The Association of Material Testing Institutions (VMPA)
is the first and majority shareholder. Since January 1st, 2007, there have been
three additional shareholders
of DAP:
- Germanischer Lloyd Industrial Services GmbH (GLIS), Hamburg
- LGA (Landesgewerbeanstalt Bayern), Nuremberg
- Federation of the TÜV registered association (VdTÜV), Berlin
DAP is a member of the German Accreditation Council (DAR), the European co-operation for Accreditation (EA), the International Laboratory Accreditation Co-operation (ILAC),
the International Accreditation Forum (IAF) and their Multilateral Agreements for Recognition (MLA and MRA),
a member of the European Federation of National Associations of Measurement, Testing and Analytical Laboratories (EUROLAB), the European Organisation for Quality (EOQ),
the German Society for Quality (DGQ) and the German Institute for Standardization (DIN).
DAP with its Profile is one of the sector specific, legally
independent accreditation bodies in the German economy working on a non-profit basis. It's
responsible for the accreditation of testing and research laboratories, of certification
bodies and of inspection bodies in the voluntary area. DAP’s primary
activity is the accreditation of material testing and chemical analytical bodies in
Germany. The European Series of Standards DIN EN 45000, the DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 and the
ISO/IEC-Guides are the basis for the accreditation.
The DAP's primary activity is the accreditation of materials testing bodies, chemical-analytical, biological
and medical laboratories, product certification bodies and inspection bodies in Germany.
The equivalence of the accreditation systems of many countries in Europe is determined through the
European co-operation for Accreditation (EA) Multilateral
Mutual Recognition Agreements (MLA), which are signed for accreditation programmes of specific conformity
assessment activities, such as testing laboratories and product certification bodies.
Signatories to the EA MLAs recognise mutually each other's accreditation systems as being equivalent to their own.
Bilateral agreements between EA and other accreditation bodies outside Europe have also been signed, thereby
facilitating the mutual recognition of these accreditation systems outside of EA. Membership of the EA MLA is
achieved by successfully undergoing a system of peer evaluations. DAP is a signatory to the EA MLA for testing
laboratories and product certification bodies since 1999.
In addition, DAP also signed (through DAR) the Mutual Recognition Arrangement of
International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) of
International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) on 02.11.2000 and on 09.10.2004 the Mutual Recognition Arrangement
of International Accreditation Forum (IAF).
These Agreements and the Arrangement would in general form the prerequisite for the recognition of test reports
and certificates issued by DAP conformity assessment bodies
(testing laboratories,
certification bodies for products and inspection bodies) in the respective countries of ILAC signatories.
