- Prior to publication of the International Standard, ISO 14034:2016, the Canadian ETV Program’s “General Verification Protocol” (GVP) served as the primary guidance document for all ETV verifications and was used as a basis for the development of the ISO 14034:2016.
- While all verifications completed by GLOBE Performance Solutions are based on ISO 14034:2016, the ETV General Verification Protocol remains a valuable reference tool for developers who are pursuing independent verification of their technology’s performance claim.
- This document was created in March 2000 and was substantially revised in February 2007.
- The GVP is used by Verification Entities in the verification process and offers a comprehensive and rigorous procedure so that all verifications are done in a consistent manner.
To start the process, the technology vendor presents a comprehensive package of information for review. The Verification Organization (VO) then establishes the following:
- The application package is complete
- The testing agency has appropriate qualifications for conducting the test program
- The analytical laboratories are accredited for the analysis required by this test program
- There is sufficient technical information about the technology
- There is credible test data, for both samples acquired for laboratory analysis and on-site process data
