Tech/Engineering - Science (general)
Russian term or phrase: и оценке соответствия
Осуществляет координацию работ по метрологическому обеспечению и оценке соответствия нанотехнологий и продукции наноиндустрии требованиям российских и международных стандартов.

I can't make heads or tails of this sentence. What is being coordinated with what?
Right now I just have parts that don't fit together:
Coordinates metrological support...nanotechnologies and nanoindustry products... conformance with the requirements of the Russian and international standards.

So, it's a mess :)

Thanks!

conformity assessment
Explanation:
Commonly used in the EU.
At its simplest, conformity assessment means checking that products, materials, services, systems or people measure up to the specifications of a relevant standard.
http://www.iso.org/iso/home/faqs/faqs_conformity_assessment_...

This European Standard contains the conditions for the evaluation of conformity of any single product to the standard. However, in order to make an assessment of conformity of a full range of products coming off a production line, more elements may be needed such as a factory production control system or quality system, a type-testing scheme, a qualification scheme and/or a certification scheme. These systems are independent from the strict evaluation of conformity of a single product, and may be required either by legislation or regulations, or by contractual agreements.

agree  Dylan Edwards: See also: http://www.standards.bz/conformity.html - but note that your www.cen.eu link seems to make a distinction between 'conformity assessment' and 'conformity evaluation', just to complicate things!

Reference: conformity assessment / evaluation

Reference information:
The terms 'conformity assessment' and 'conformity evaluation' can be found in this glossary: http://www.cen.eu/boss/Pages/glossary.aspx

At a quick glance, I'd say that 'conformity assessment' is the more general term.

I don't know whether this distinction is made in Russian.
