Local & International Lab Coordination
Laboratory coordination connects a product’s regulatory testing needs with appropriate independent facilities and manages communication around the testing scope.
Businesses sourcing RF, EMC, safety or efficiency reports locally or internationally may need help selecting suitable laboratory capabilities.
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 model list and technical specifications
- Required test types and target regulators
- Available prior reports and sample details
Confirm these points and avoid common pitfalls:
- Assess accreditation and relevant test scope
- Confirm acceptance in the target jurisdiction
- Align sample and commercial model identifiers
Issues worth addressing early:
- Choosing a lab outside the required test scope
- Late discovery of missing standards evidence
- Assuming all global certificates are interchangeable
How It Works
Independent laboratories perform the tests. ATC coordinates scope, documents and report alignment.
