Each contract typically ranges from approximately $4,000 to $7,000 and requires conducting comprehensive assessments to ensure these laboratories comply with established national standards. The contracts are consistently awarded without set-aside designations, indicating open competition, and demonstrate Hockert Consulting's specialized expertise in laboratory standardization and accreditation processes within the metrology domain.
