JCGM (Joint Committee for Guides in Metrology)

The Joint Committee for Guides in Metrology (JCGM) is an international organization that develops and harmonizes measurement standards and guidelines. Its goal is to ensure consistency, accuracy, and reliability in measurements across different countries and industries. JCGM produces important documents like the "VIM" (International Vocabulary of Metrology), which defines key measurement terms, and the "Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement," helping ensure that measurements are comparable and trustworthy worldwide. This cooperation helps businesses, scientists, and regulators rely on measurements for testing, compliance, and innovation.
