Local Agency Lobbying Support

Compliance International's services have been specifically designed to reduce costs for manufacturers, test laboratories and consultants seeking type approval for telecommunications equipment and other ITE. Our clients need to have products tested and approved as quickly and as smoothly as possible to reduce time to market. Through our local offices across the Asia-Pacific region, we offer the leading turnkey solution for fast, efficient, end to end approvals support -- from consulting and preparation to certification and labeling advice. No other company offers this same level of service backed up by our brand of on-the-ground local support.

Type Approval Support

End to End Service

We take our clients' products from the initial step of determining approval requirements and the best approval strategy, through to preparing the approval applications and offering on-site engineering test support when in-country testing is required. We then follow through with the local regulatory authorities to see that certifications are issued as quickly as possible. In many cases our local offices are able to hold certificates on behalf of clients who lack a local presence in a market, leaving you the flexibility of not having approvals tied to one of your distributors.

Certification Expertise

We begin to deliver value before we even start compiling technical documents on a product. Because we know the approval schemes in each of our markets so thoroughly, and because we focus on telecommunications equipment and ITE compliance, we can lend expert advice on approval requirements and help our clients to develop the most efficient and flexible approval strategies for their products. We eliminate the need for our clients' staff to become experts on the ins and outs of each market's approval process and regulations.

Our Technical Package Requirements (TPR) lists for each market summarize all the materials we will need to build an application package and support equipment during test. They reflect our experience with each of the regulatory agencies and processes. Based on this, our team works closely with our clients to compile technical documents and test samples as efficiently as possible.

Full Engineering Testing Support

Approvals in the Asia-Pacific region often require in-country testing of the equipment. We invest heavily in training to ensure that our engineers have the technical expertise to support equipment under test. This helps to minimize delays in testing and gives our clients a measure of security in knowing that their approvals are in good hands.

Our experienced telecom engineers work with our clients' staff to understand the set-up and configuration of the products, and then go on to support the products through testing. When we're supporting approval in several markets for a product, engineers in our different offices will share what they've learned testing the product with the goal of streamlining testing in the next market. In many cases test support is completely transparent to our clients. When there are test failures or other problems, our local engineers work closely with our clients' design or support engineers to resolve the issue. This allows manufacturers' in-country sales staff to concentrate on their primary goals, not the type approval process.

Strong Local Connections

Relationships are the key to success in Asia. We put a lot of effort into maintaining our very strong working relationships with the regulating agency representatives in each market we cover. Because we submit so many applications in each market, we enjoy very good professional relationships with the individuals at the regulatory agencies. Once testing is completed it's often crucial to continue to interface with the local agency to avoid any unnecessary delays in issuance of the type approval certificate. Again, we keep chasing them, freeing up our clients' sales engineers' time to do their jobs.

Project Management

Throughout the process we provide our clients with constant progress information and interaction through Compliance Manager, our custom-developed secure extranet. Through Compliance Manager, our clients see the status of each of the projects we're handling for them at any given time. This puts at our clients' fingertips all the compliance information needed for planning launch and shipping schedules. And it gives our clients the ability to manage the approval process for many products across many markets at once with only a small staff time commitment.

No Surprises Fee Structure

Typically we offer our service on a fixed fee per approval basis. That is, rather than leaving the final cost of obtaining approvals a question, we charge a flat fixed fee per application we are to prepare and support in each market. Our fixed fees do not include the application and testing fees charged by the local regulatory agencies or other direct project expenses, but we can estimate these for you based on the details of specific equipment.
