Conformity assessment is performed with the involvement of an accredited in-house conformity assessment body that forms a part of the manufacturer’s organisation. However this in-house body must not have any activities other than conformity assessment and must be independent from any commercial, design and production entities (see for details Article R21 of Annex I of Decision No 768/2008/EC). It has to demonstrate the same technical competence and impartiality as external conformity assessment bodies, through accreditation.
