Pre-Compliance & Design Support
Pre-compliance support helps product teams recognise potential technical and regulatory issues while products or variants are still being designed.
Manufacturers, engineering teams and connected-device developers can use early compliance advice to plan testing before final product release.
How We Help
We coordinate independent testing and review evidence against the requirements of the intended approval.
Requirements & Guidance
Check these details before starting. Exact requirements depend on the product, business model and application route.
Typical supporting information includes:
- Product concept, specifications and diagrams
- Proposed radio modules and power requirements
- Target markets and expected use environment
Confirm these points and avoid common pitfalls:
- Consider frequency restrictions at design stage
- Check critical safety and EMC test exposures
- Record changes affecting final product evidence
Issues worth addressing early:
- Discovering unsupported bands after production
- Changing key components without new evidence
- Confusing preliminary checks with formal approval
Key Considerations
How It Works
Independent laboratories perform the tests. ATC coordinates scope, documents and report alignment.
