The UKAS Publications List will be updated on the final working day of each month. The list will be up-issued regardless of whether there are changes or not. The current version of the publications list will be referenced on the home page under the Technical Information heading and will indicate whether or not there have been changes since the previous edition.
Organisations are required to comply with current editions of all UKAS publications relevant to their accreditation or application. As well as UKAS publications, accredited and applicant organisations should be aware of international publications relevant to their area of accreditation, available from the EA, IAF and ILAC websites. Accredited and Applicant Organisations, and Assessors currently engaged by UKAS, must check that they either have an up-to-date copy of every publication relevant to their activities or have web access available to be able to access those documents as required.
As a result of feedback received from our customers, we have now provided the entire publications list as a printable document, in order to avoid having to print off each of the publications pages seperately. Please click the link below to see this document.
