MISSION & VISION
Mission
To perform the functions of the Designated Reference Institute for Chemical Measurements DRiCM to establish and disseminate the Unbroken Chain of Traceability in Chemical Measurements from the laboratories of Bangladesh to the SI Unit at BIPM through developing and delivering Values, i.e. products and services in Chemical Metrology.
Vision
With the leadership of DRiCM, by the year 2021, Bangladesh will excel in producing results from chemical measurements with acceptable quality through utilizing the partnership based decentralized infrastructure for Metrology in Chemistry to reduce the overall non-conforming data from the national laboratories to less than 30% from its current estimated 50%.
Metrology , as defined by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM), is "the science of measurement, embracing both experimental and theoretical determinations at any level of uncertainty in any field of science and technology". It establishes a common understanding of unit, crucial in linking human activities.
