Abstract
A pragmatic method is proposed for the implementation of the Guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement in the certification of reference materials by laboratory intercomparison. It is based on the establishment of a full uncertainty budget for each laboratory result and the estimation of the impact of various laboratory standard uncertainties and of between-units variability on the certified reference material (CRM) uncertainty.
