Is the laboratory commissioning process necessary at the start of each new year?

The laboratory commissioning process is not necessary at the start of each new year. Commissioning typically refers to a structured process that ensures laboratory facilities, equipment, and systems are installed, tested, and perform as intended. This process is usually conducted during the initial setup of a lab or when significant changes or upgrades are implemented, rather than annually.

Conducting commissioning at the beginning of each year would be redundant and inefficient unless there have been substantial changes to the equipment, systems, or facility itself that warrant a re-evaluation. Routine checks, maintenance, and quality control can be managed through regular operational procedures without the need for a complete commissioning process every year.
