Professional indemnity is usually the central cover, supported by liability, cyber and equipment protection where required.

• Firms advising laboratories, manufacturers, engineers or inspection teams
• Consultants preparing reports, certificates, recommendations or quality documentation
• Businesses visiting client sites with laptops, test equipment or portable instruments

Typical Calibration Consultancy Risks

Claims can involve alleged inaccurate advice, unsuitable calibration intervals, report errors, flawed procedures, missed compliance requirements, incorrect measurement recommendations, damaged client equipment, confidentiality issues or delays affecting a client's production or certification process.

Professional Indemnity for Technical Advice

Professional indemnity can help where a client alleges your calibration advice or technical documentation caused financial loss. Insurers will usually want to understand the sectors you advise, equipment types, standards followed, contract terms, fee income, quality controls, subcontractor use and previous claims history.

Site Visits, Instruments and Cyber Exposure

Calibration consultants may work on client premises, carry portable instruments and hold sensitive technical data. Public liability, equipment cover and cyber insurance can sit alongside professional indemnity where consultancy work depends on specialist tools, digital records and reliable access to client information.
