Types of services

They are fundamentally differentiated by the type of service provided to the client, and can be distinguished as follows:

Analytical Services in which the client contracts GTS. These are clients who send a certain volume of samples throughout the year, doing so systematically and with a known frequency. This allows for the organization and allocation of the necessary resources.

These services may include:

  • A request for a one-time test by a client.
  • A request for different tests repeatedly throughout the year, without reaching a total volume that would allow for the signing of an agreement.

Research and Consulting Services in which the client contracts GTS services for the development or optimization of an analytical method, collaboration on a research project, consulting activities, etc.

The management of these services through an agreement will be decided by both interested parties, depending on the duration of the service.

Training Services:

  • Training in analytical techniques.
  • Training in the implementation of Quality Systems.
