Often clients will require the whole process to be delivered as a complete one-stop Type Approval solution whilst they can focus on their core business, realising that entrusting it to an expert is more cost effective than trying to go it alone. Alternatively if some form of type approval process already exists, we can offer advice or plug a skills gap where identified to enable client to complete the Approval with minimal delay.

Certech will develop a bespoke solution for all clients; each case is different and will require a unique solution to be cost effective. Ultimately the goal is to be granted an approval from the VCA or other certifying agency for the Type approval application, however the route the approval will vary depending upon volume, complexity and value of the application. In addition the Vehicle Approval may require a Component or System Certification which can be included as part of the overall package.

Let us discuss the options with you and simplify the decision making process.
