The Metrology Institute of the Republic of Slovenia (MIRS) is also a body within the Ministry. The Metrology Institute determines and runs the national metrology system in Slovenia, including the field of precious metal articles, and procedures related to the Slovenian Business Excellence Prize. It represents these systems in the corresponding international organisations, and develops them in an internationally comparable and recognisable way.

The mission of MIRS as a leading national metrology institution is to establish, manage and maintain such infrastructure which provides for:

• measurements in conformity with the SI System, to the Slovenian State,
• reliable measurements in the fields of health protection of people and animals, environmental protection, general technical safety, transactions in goods and services, and proceedings before the administrative and judicial authorities, to the residents of the Republic of Slovenia,
• the Slovenian economy to attain global competitiveness.
