1- Introduction 1.1 Proficiency Testing:

Proficiency testing programs are statistical quality assurance programs that enable

laboratories to assess their performance in conducting test methods within their own

laboratories when their data are compared against other laboratories that participate

worldwide in the same program.

Proficiency testing aim is to provide an independent assessment of the competence of

participating laboratories. Together with the use of validated methods, Proficiency

testing is an essential element of laboratory quality assurance.

The IQAS PT programs are independent schemes arranged by an independent section

in IQAS; designed for laboratories to ensure the performance of individual laboratories

for specific tests or measurements, and to monitor the continuing performance of

laboratories. It provides laboratories with an objective means of assessing the

reliability and confidence in the data they are producing. It also complies with the

requirements of ISO/IEC 17025:2005: 5.9 – Assuring the quality of test and calibration

results – clause (b) “participation in inter-laboratory comparison or proficiency

testing programs”.

Further details of the IQAS proficiency testing scheme are available in our (PC03.

Ver01) and (W02. Ver01).

1.2 Confidentiality:

In order to ensure confidentiality, a unique laboratory reference code is assigned to

each participant. All participants receive a report including all the results for that PT;

but without identifying individual laboratories.

2- Participated laboratories:

There was a positive response from the laboratories that were invited to participate in

this round. The test sample was distributed to twenty laboratories from eight of Iraqi

governorates; seventeen of the laboratories reported their results within the set time-

frame.

3- Test Material

3.1 Preparation:

Samples for this round were prepared by a subcontractor; the preparation of

samples was according to (EN 196-7, 2007). Sample had been putted in sealed

plastic bottles,

3.2 Homogeneity:

In order to check that the samples to be used in a proficiency test are adequately

homogeneous and stable; randomly selected samples were tested in duplicate in a

subcontracting accredited laboratory. This laboratory meets the requirements of the

standard ISO/IEC 17043-1:2010. The homogeneity was checked according to the

requirement of ISO 13528-2005. These data showed a sufficient homogeneity.

3.3. Dispatch:

One plastic bottle contains 20 gm of ordinary Portland cement was distributed to all

participated laboratories. The start date was 7 April 2015.

Test materials were distributed to twenty participants; most of them collected the

test materials during the time frame; others were a little bit late.

3.4 Test Method:

Work instructions no. (W02. Ver01) were given to the participants to test the

samples for determination of: Silicon dioxide, Aluminum oxide, Ferrous oxide,

Calcium oxide, Magnesium oxide, Insoluble residue, Sulfur trioxide and Loss of

Ignition as per: ASTM C113-14

4- Statistical evaluation of results:

4.1 Assigned value:

The results submitted by participants were statistically analyzed in order to provide

an assigned value for Eight major elements namely Silicon dioxide, Aluminum

oxide, Ferrous oxide, Calcium oxide, Magnesium oxide, Insoluble residue, Sulfur

trioxide and Loss of Ignition.

The assigned value was derived from the consensus of the results submitted by all

participants. Values from participants that were way out from the others are down-

weighted so that their impact is not big according to the statistical method of ISO

13528/5725-5 (Algorithm A+S).

Assigned value and measurements uncertainty are shown in table (1), appendix (A). However the uncertainty of the assigned value will be negligible when it is not too large.

IQAS PT section

4.2 Z-score:

Results were evaluated by using Z-score value which is a standardized measure of

laboratory bias, calculated using the assigned value and the standard deviation for

proficiency assessment.

푍 − 푠푐표푟푒 =(X − Xa)Ơƿ

Where:

X= the result reported by the participant Xa= the assigned value σp= the standard deviation for proficiency assessment

The basic performance categories and reporting formats to be used are as follows: Score Interpretation |Z| < 2.00 Satisfactory results 2.00 < |Z| < 3.00 Questionable results |Z| > 3.00 Unsatisfactory results All results will be given a performance score. For the purposes of performance assessment for a single round Z- score is interpreted as shown above. 5- Summary of Results:

The results have been analyzed by using the ProLab plus Software which is specifically designed for planning, organizing, performing and analyzing of inter-laboratory tests and proficiency schemes.

87.4% of data points are satisfactory (lie between a Z-score of -2 and +2)

2.52% of data points are Questionable (lie between a Z- score of -2 to -3 and +2 to +3)

10.08% of data points are Unsatisfactory and a (Z-score of below -3 and above +3)
