The challenge
Product conformity is anchored in many companies in different ways - sometimes in the development department, sometimes in quality management or even in the legal department. While responsibility for a clearly defined core product or a homogeneous product group is still relatively easy to assign, it quickly becomes complex with a broadly diversified portfolio. Clear responsibilities are difficult to define, especially when leather or textile accessories and other gadgets are sold alongside electronic products. The challenge is to ensure product conformity across all product categories and to establish an integrated early warning function that indicates regulatory changes in good time.

Collaborative solution
Together with our clients, we develop a solution that integrates all relevant areas and creates a consistent responsibility structure. By introducing an interdisciplinary Conformity Board at management level, we ensure that compliance requirements are not only recognized but also implemented efficiently. Supplemented by an “Early Warning System”, regulatory changes can be identified at an early stage and integrated into product development and sales in a targeted manner.
Achievement
Our practice-oriented advice has led to the establishment of a Conformity Board with permanent representatives from all relevant specialist areas. In combination with an “early warning system” for legal requirements, this ensures that regulatory changes are incorporated into the company at an early stage and implemented efficiently - with minimal effort and with the involvement of all necessary stakeholders. In this way, we guarantee long-term product conformity and ensure our customers' global sales capability.
