Confirm the application boundary
Before applying for CE Marking for Medical Devices, record the reason for the request, relevant activities or products, sites and target market. Check who is responsible for the application and which requirements actually apply.
Connect evidence to assessment
Each record should identify its owner, date and the product, process or site it covers. Agree how documents, practical implementation and any required testing will be reviewed, and how findings lead to a decision under the applicable programme.
Plan a realistic timetable
Allow for evidence preparation, site availability, tests and correction of findings. A reliable schedule and offer depend on the confirmed scope and readiness; distinguish preparatory work from external assessment and decision dates.
