Accreditation Dry-Run Dossier

The Dry-Run Dossier produces a self-assessment PDF ahead of an assessment visit. It stores nothing and changes nothing: it reads the current state and composes it into one document.

Found under: ISO 17025 → Quality System → Accreditation Dry-Run Dossier.

The two parts

Part A — always included. A summary verdict, the 141 clauses by section, and an index of supporting documents.

🔴 Part A describes what the software provides per clause. It is the same for every laboratory. The compliance percentage it shows does not measure your data — see the Clause Map for the same information on screen.

Part B — your laboratory's snapshot. Seven sections, all ticked by default:

SectionWhat it includes
Accreditation detailsBody, number, scope and dates, from Settings
Records lifecycleRetention tiers, pending dispositions and active legal holds
Audit ProgrammeThe active programme's coverage, closed and open
Customer satisfactionAverage, response rate and outstanding surveys
Quality system KPIsThe open items across the quality system
System incidentsThe platform's failure register for the last 24 months (§7.11.3(e))
User attributionHow many recorded changes carry a user's name, and how many do not (ALCOA+)

Whenever any Part B section prints, the IT provider declaration (§7.11.4, §7.11.5) is appended too. It has no checkbox of its own.

Part A also ends with a data integrity (ALCOA+) appendix: the nine attributes an assessor may work through — attributable, legible, contemporaneous, original, accurate, complete, consistent, enduring, available — against what evidences each one. It prints whether or not you tick anything in Part B.

Notes

  • An unticked section is absent entirely from the PDF. A ticked but empty one prints with a "not configured" note. The two look different on purpose: an assessor must be able to tell "I did not ask for it" from "it does not exist".
  • Accreditation details come only from Settings. If those are blank, the section prints empty even with the box ticked.
  • The PDF opens in a new tab and is not stored in the system.
