Through its Qualified Vendor Program (QVP), RIOLAB ensures that all vendors using the lab for testing benefit from the most advanced equipment available for interoperability and specification compliance testing. Qualified Vendors must have demonstrated compliance to the RapidIO® specification and make a commitment to deliver hardware or software for permanent use in RIOLAB.

In addition, all Qualified Vendors agree to provide upgrades or new products to RIOLAB on a continuing basis, ensuring that lab customers can experience their products and test equipment in a practical lab environment with other state-of-the-art products that comply with the RapidIO® specification.

RIOLAB's QVP not only ensures the integrity of results, but broadens involvement from both the RapidIO ecosystem and the industry as a whole. RIOLAB benefits from the breadth of RapidIO eco-system participation and products while becoming a world-class testing facility and eco-system vendors achieve greater visibility of the interoperability of their products and equipment.
