The Audit Safety Net: What if your product is found to be into breach of RoHS and you are taken to Court? Will your Company be able to prove that it has taken ‘reasonable steps’ to avoid the offence? Regular Independent Audits are a must for any Company aiming to prove ‘due diligence’ as a legal defence. Our RAWS Audit covers all areas that would be looked at by authorities in the event of a breach of Compliance.The RAWS Audit can assess both your product and infrastructure against these requirements. Infrastructure Audits for OEM’S and Suppliers Just how compliant is your infrastructure/product? Will your infrastructure allow you to confidently build compliant product. Will it withstand scrutiny by the Authorities? Our Audit system is based around the guidance given in the RoHS Enforcement Guidance Document from the EU RoHS Enforcement Authorities Informal Network. We check your rules around accepting material declarations, check your log of due diligence exemples (do you haveone)? before moving on to inwards goods inspection and production. If your infrastructure is sound then your products should be compliant. A sound infrastructure is a base line requirement for compliant product and a legal defence. Our carefully developed 4 part auditing plan will provide you with a detailed report of how your existing structure looks, accurately pin-points non-conformances, advises solutions and suggestions for further improvement. This will prove to your customers and authorities that you have taken all reasonable steps to ensure compliance of your products. We can also perform product specific Audits. Our 4 part plan covers: - Internal infrastructure
- Material Declarations
- Due Diligence
- Inspection and ongoing Audit
