Supporting guides
| Guide | What it covers |
|---|---|
| An evidence register for a project | A register that links each requirement to its design measure and evidence, and shows open issues honestly. |
| Managing suppliers for conformity | Supplier evidence checked, versioned, and filed, with gaps treated as project risks. |
| Change control for machinery projects | A change process that reviews assessment, drawings, tests, and instructions together before a change is released. |
| Preparing for a conformity audit | An audit prepared from the index, with evidence traceable and open issues visible, not hidden. |
| Roles in a conformity project | Design, safety, documentation, and sign off roles, and why the manufacturer responsibility cannot be delegated away. |
| A realistic conformity timeline | Sequencing that puts scope and risk early, and declaration last, with time for verification and review. |
| Communicating conformity work | Internal and supply chain communication that keeps the file honest: open issues stated, assumptions visible. |
| Closing out a conformity project | Closeout that checks the chain from requirement to declaration, and files the record for ten year retention. |
