- 14 SOPs as separate Word files, each with an approval page (prepared by, reviewed by, approved by laboratory director: name, signature, date), annual review and revision history

- 18-worksheet Excel Equipment Qualification Dashboard: inventory, risk scoring, qualification schedule, IQ/OQ/PQ results, temperature mapping and alarm testing, centrifuge RPM/RCF calculator, pipette gravimetric calculator, performance monitoring, defects and CAPA, release holds, requalification, vendors and documents, training, management report, rules and data checks

- 6 training and competency resources: instructor guide, learner handbook, ten exercises, answer key, practical competency checklists and a qualification-and-release simulation

**Built to be practical**
- Risk-based approach: your laboratory decides what is qualified and how, and records the reason

- Equipment-specific guidance for refrigerators, freezers and incubators, centrifuges, pipettes, balances, thermometers and timers

- Excel flags overdue and due-soon calibration, qualification, deviations, requalification, documents and training, and checks release decisions against readiness

- Example rows are fictional and clearly labeled; delete or overwrite them before real use

**Important notes**
- Formal IQ/OQ/PQ is not a universal CLIA requirement for every item of laboratory equipment. The guide explains how the framework relates to 42 CFR 493.1252 through 493.1255 so you can choose activities based on applicable requirements, intended use, manufacturer instructions and your risk assessment.

- No acceptance criteria are supplied. Limits come from the manufacturer, applicable standards or values your laboratory director approves before testing. Limits shown in examples and exercises are fictional.

- The pipette Z-factor table is calculated for standard conditions; confirm it against ISO 8655-6 or your calibration provider.

- These are editable templates, not completed qualification evidence. Purchase does not guarantee compliance, accreditation or inspection results, and this is not legal, regulatory or clinical advice.

- Independent resource, not affiliated with or endorsed by CMS, CAP, COLA, the Joint Commission or any state agency.
