In the field of information technology (IT), the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) [1], [2], [3] has been used as a guideline for some time. A best practice guide was also developed there. Later, the aspiration for best practice was abandoned, because this claim of the absolute best solution is not tenable. Instead, one focuses on good practice (GP) and takes into account that the result is generally accepted and used in the industry.
Despite their technical differences, calibration certificates have a high degree of similarity. This is also due to the fact that the preparation of the report of the results of a calibration is described in ISO IEC 17025 [4] for accredited calibration laboratories. Non-accredited calibrations also follow this description to a certain extent.
Based on this similarity, it is possible to structure the DCCs in such a way that they can not only be read by the machines, but also executed and interpreted. For this purpose, a utility model was designed in IEC SG12 [5], which is discussed in [6], [7]. This is the first part of the DCC - GP.
The second part of the DCC - GP are the implementation examples agreed with experts from the relevant communities, to which the calibration partners adhere.
The third part of the DCC - GP is that, according to the Pareto principle, you first advance the implementation of the applications that have the greatest effect on the overall system.

The results of the work with industry, (accredited) calibration laboratories and PTB are stored in this GP collection. The XML files have been developed on the basis of the DCC schema 3.1.0.
This collection is intended to represent the variety of possibilities that are possible for a large part of the calibrations in the field of temperature. The requirements of industry (non-accredited calibration) are also explicitly taken into account.
