This is nothing new. My grandmother worked in a lab testing for compliancy (testing the amount of lead in paints, etc) and had a story or 2 of her getting pressured to use the prescribed methodology which was incorrect. When she refused her boss took it to someone else because the contract with the big company was too pricey to lose.
