Institute for National Measurement Standards (INMS)

The Institute for National Measurement Standards (INMS) is a specialized organization responsible for establishing and maintaining precise measurement standards within a country. Its role is to ensure that measurements of physical properties—like weight, temperature, and electrical signals—are accurate, consistent, and internationally recognized. By developing and certifying measurement methods, INMS helps industries, scientists, and governments ensure products, processes, and data are reliable. This foundational work supports trade, technological innovation, and research, fostering trust and interoperability in measurements across various fields.
