The extension granted by <em>Regulation (EU) 2023\/607<\/em> has allowed more time for manufacturers, but the continued postponement of submissions is creating a domino effect. This could lead to a critical overload for Notified Bodies by <strong>2028<\/strong>. If technical files are submitted en masse only in the final available months, the result may be <strong>longer certification timelines and delays<\/strong> in accessing the European market, potentially disrupting the continued marketing of many devices.<\/p>\n\n<p>This trend, also highlighted in the latest <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.team-nb.org\/mdr-technical-documentation-training-for-manufacturers-survey-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Team-NB Survey Report<\/a><\/em>, is a phenomenon that ECM is closely monitoring. As Notified Body, we urge manufacturers not to underestimate this situation: <strong>updating and submitting technical documentation in a timely manner<\/strong> helps prevent critical issues and ensures a more efficient evaluation process.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:21px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-189c229eecd5640ae31eb48b01e9196b\" style=\"color:#085f9b\"><strong>TAKE A PROACTIVE APPROACH TO THE CERTIFICATION PROCESS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p>Currently, ECM Medical Devices is evaluating a significant number of technical files, yet the volume of documentation received so far remains lower than expected. If the current tendency to delay persists, the risk is a sudden surge in requests over the coming years. Such a bottleneck would inevitably lead to extended evaluation times.<\/p>\n\n<p>For this reason, we encourage manufacturers to carefully plan their timelines. Taking a <strong>proactive approach<\/strong> to the certification process not only helps avoid critical issues but also provides an opportunity for companies to strategically position themselves in the market, preventing delays that could affect the continuous marketing of their devices.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong><em>Our team is available to engage in a structured dialogue and start the certification process for your device right now! <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Contact us at:Diego Stevanella <a href=\"mailto:diego.s@entecerma.it\">diego.s@entecerma.it<\/a> | Marzia Pellegrini <a href=\"mailto:marzia.p@entecerma.it\">marzia.p@entecerma.it<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The IDS 2025 trade fair in Cologne has come to a close, providing us some&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":9353,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[282,1538,1641,1642,128,950,404,123,367,185],"class_list":["post-9355","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-dispositivi-medici-en","tag-ecm-for-medical-devices-en","tag-ids-cologne-en","tag-international-dental-show-en","tag-mdr-2017-745-en","tag-mdr-certification-en","tag-medical-device-regulation-en","tag-medical-devices-en","tag-notified-body-en","tag-organismo-notificato-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
