Directive Coverage Report (DCR)
Having difficulty determining which CE marking, environmental or other directives apply to your product(s)? Let CITRA's technical staff and experience work for you. The most vital step of the CE marking process is correctly identifying which directive(s) cover your product, and those that do not. A Directive Coverage Report (DCR) provides you with a clear and concise document illustrating your product's applicable directive(s) and article(s) of coverage. This is a good "quick start" to your CE marking efforts. Please call for a quote.

Initial Assessment Report (IAR)
An Initial Assessment Report (IAR) is your complete roadmap to CE marking and product certification. An IAR will highlight your product's applicable directives and articles of coverage, provide you with an easy to use checklist of essential requirements, lists of harmonized standards mandated by your directives, determine your product classification, illustrate available conformity assessment options (modules), list available notified bodies and highlight your documentation requirements and procedures for affixing the CE marking logo to your product. An IAR is a sure fire tool that will decrease both the time and cost of certification - guaranteed! Also available for environmental and other regulations. Please call for a quote.

Project Management (PM)
CITRA's Project Management (PM) is your implementation tool to CE marking and product certification. PM includes an initial assessment as described above, but CITRA staff will also coordinate testing, notified body involvement, authorized representation, translation and other thrid-party services. CITRA engineers will assist with the product risk assessment and technical file construction including declaration of conformity. CITRA will review final documents and labeling of your product. PM lets you benefit from our tight network of service providers, save cost due to specific negotiations concerning required testing and other services, and give you the piece of mind of having your CE paperwork reviewed independently without going through a notified body.
