Abstract: The administrative functions relevant to the operation of a standards laboratory include budgeting, staffing, procuring capital-equipment, structuring policies, and directing activities toward specific productive goals which are tasks common to any organization. In addition, there are unique functions due to special services provided by virtue of involvement in various technical disciplines of metrology. An overview of some of the principal operational functions of the Hughes Aircraft Co. (HAC) Primary Standards Laboratory (PSL) is shown in Fig. 1. These functions and related services are divided essentially into administrative and technical categories with an additional complementary category to include overlapping functions of technical and administrative nature. Also, depicted in Fig. 1 is the interfacing relationship of PSL with respect to end users of PSL services e.g., the group of Secondary Calibration Laboratories (with their respective locations indicated), engineering, manufacturing, research laboratories, remotely located HAC on-site special test facilities, and field-service depots.
