11. REASSESSMENT AND SURVEILLANCE

Framework Directive
Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 September 2007 establishing a framework for the approval of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles (Framework Directive) (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

11.1. Reassessment is similar to an initial assessment except that experience gained during previous assessments must be taken into account. Surveillance on-site assessments are less comprehensive than reassessments. 11.2. The competent authority must design its plan for reassessment and surveillance of each designated technical service so that representative samples of the scope of designation are assessed on a regular basis. The interval between on-site assessments, whether reassessment or surveillance, depends on the proven stability that the technical service has reached. 11.3. When, during surveillance or reassessments, nonconformities are identified, the competent authority must define strict time limits for corrective actions to be implemented. 11.4. When the corrective or improvement actions have not been taken within the agreed timeframe or are not deemed to be sufficient, the competent authority must adopt appropriate measures such as, conducting a further assessment, suspending/withdrawing the designation for one or more of the activities for which the technical service has been designated. 11.5. When the competent authority decides to suspend or withdraw the designation of a technical service, it must inform the latter by registered mail. In any case, the competent authority must adopt all the necessary measures to ensure the continuity of the activities already undertaken by the technical service.
