What is CETech?
CETech is intended for manufacturers, importers and retailers of toys, electrical and
machinery products. It provides a technical file storage, retrieval and alerting system
that can be controlled and verified. Businesses can save time and money by allowing
suppliers to upload technical documentation into CETech. The risk of design or
component changes adversely affecting product safety are minimised by routinely
scheduling critical component reviews supported by email confirmation. CETech
also produces, in one-click, a product control document identifying the compliance
status and test reports for a product, which is useful for presenting to enforcement
authorities. It is a scalable product with the aim of achieving a fully audited
compliance system for EU Directives.
CETech is available in the ‘cloud’ allowing worldwide access and is enabled on the
latest tablet devices.

Standards Database
Educational Tool
CETech is a logical and analytical tool.
Through its application the organisation will
benefit from a thorough understanding of
the procedures involved in achieving and
maintaining compliance with CE-marking
legislation. Intuitive design provides a means
of uploading, reviewing and approving
technical documentation.
Graphical Dashboard
Graphical illustration of technical file content
and gaps. The dashboard provides the
organisation with a customisable overview of
all products entered into the database allowing
the user to drill down to individual products.
Critical Component Reviews
Many products fail due to unscheduled critical
component changes. CETech provides the
means of demonstrating due diligence by
scheduling regular correspondence with the
Manufacturer or Supplier providing details of
changes to critical components.
Product Control Document
It is a legal obligation to provide evidence
of technical documentation to Market
Surveillance Authorities in a timely fashion.
The PCD provides in one-click a summary of
supporting technical documentation, which
may be provided to the Authorities during
routine enquiries or at the first stage of an
investigative process.
“
Provides a repository for harmonised standards
and their amendments which can be applied
to products. Products are identified when
a standard has been superseded by a later
amendment, prompting the update of
technical documentation and retesting where
necessary.
Schedule Sample Testing
Schedule routine sample testing for products
and capture results to satisfy EU regulatory
requirements and demonstrate conformity of
series production
Test Report Expiry Reminders
Ensuring product maintains compliance with the
latest editions of harmonised standards. Events
are scheduled automatically from the issue date of
test reports. Track results of mitigating actions in
the Product Audit Trail.
Plug Certificate Expiry Reminder
Ensuring fitted plug approval is maintained.
Events are scheduled automatically from approval
certificate issue date. Track results of mitigating
actions in the Product Audit Trail.
Full Product Audit Trail
Records all product activities including
creation, updates, events, complaints and
updates to technical documentation.
Traceability
Capture exposure details, date placed on market
and batch and serial number information to
satisfy legislative traceability requirements.
CETech is a very comprehensive software tool that helps us ensure full compliance with the requirements of the revised
Toy Safety Directive. It gives us a robust structure to help manage the increasingly complex range of documentation
required for our many products and enables us to monitor product status at a glance. CETech gives us the confidence
that we are doing everything we need to in order to comply with current and future legislation

The revised Toy Safety Directive 2009/48/EC adds a number of mandatory obligations for toy products. The recording
and holding of the technical documentation for a product is increasingly complicated. CETech offers a single database
that can store all of the TSD documents in one location. In addition it can help companies manage their obligations on
conformity of series production by managing changes in harmonized standards and by holding factory audit details.
Summary sheets can be produced that highlight key compliance details for customer and enforcement enquiries. In my
opinion this system is an extremely useful tool to help manage ever increasingly complicated legislative requirements
