What is Traceability? Traceability is documentation proving a direct link to the official U.S. one kilogram weight standard housed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). NIST standards are calibrated to the international one kilogram weight standard maintained at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM). Traceability not only means that a weight or mass standard has links to the one kilogram standard, but also that the measurements are appropriate for the accuracy class required for the application. Traceability also requires proof that all environmental...
