Authorisation

Notified body staff can only assess devices within the codes and areas of expertise for which they are authorized. Gaps in authorized staff are one reason a notified body may not accept an application or may take longer to review it.

Authorisation: approval of personnel to certain conformity assessment activities and types of devices with associated NANDO codes or areas of expertise based on established qualification criteria.
