BIPM and OIML joint knowledge transfer initiative Brochure - National Metrology Systems
The BIPM/OIML Brochure, with six inserts on different aspects of the National Metrology Systems, was published within the frame of the BIPM and OIML joint knowledge transfer initiative. It was developed based on the joint BIPM/OIML publication National metrology systems - Developing the institutional and legislative framework (OIML D 1:2020), and summarises all the aspects covered by the joint publication.

The Brochure and its inserts have been written in an accessible way, and are aimed at
- supporting Countries and Economies with Emerging Metrology Systems (CEEMS) in the implementation of this International Document,
- underpinning Objective 5 of OIML B 15:2011 OIML Strategy on raising awareness of the contribution that a sound legal metrology infrastructure can make to a modern economy,
- underpinning the CGPM’s Resolution 6 “On universal adherence to the Metre Convention”.
The Brochure and its inserts summarise key elements that should be considered when producing policies aimed at developing national metrology systems, setting up institutions dealing with metrology, and drawing up national laws related to metrology.
The material is available in English in a format that is suitable for printing. Files intended for professional printing are available through the BIPM and OIML secretariats.
