It relies on expert reviews of verification activities such as laboratory testing, physical inspections, and factory audits, and results in a Certificate of Conformity (CoC) used for mandatory customs clearance. PCA reduces risks of unsafe, substandard, or counterfeit goods, supports government enforcement, accelerates customs, and helps exporters avoid rejection through pre-shipment compliance checks.","Product conformity assessment  \nENSURE THE QUALITY OF YOUR GOODS  \nENHANCING INTERNATIONAL TRADE  \nIn today’s globalized markets and fast growing economy, the increasing volumes of goods traded between countries is not only the sign of mutual benefits but also a major source of concern for government authorities due to the safety and traceability of the products.  \nThe exchange of products and services between  \ncountries means an increase in beneficial commerce with business partners as well as a productive crossing of borders. This interaction requires mutual understanding and adherence to internationally recognized standards that must adapt to the ever-changing spirit of the global economy.  \nWith the world trade linked as one global market, the clients’focus is extending beyond timely delivery and acceptable quality and quantity. Each country’s concerns pivot on consistency and compliance in trade practices as well as the protection and safety of their human, animal, and plant life resources. To ensure these concerns are addressed, an increasing number of governments have instituted Conformity Assessment as part of their plans for sustainable development.  \nSGS Product Conformity Assessment (PCA) is a solution designed to ensure that products meet the specific requirements set by a regulatory authority in the importing country.  \nThe solution consists of verifying product’s compliance  \nwith the requirements of applicable standards and technical regulations following a review by SGS product specialists, of reports from verification activities such as laboratory testing, physical inspection and factory audits. Conformity of products is evidenced by the issuance of a Certificate of Conformity (CoC), a document that is mandatory for customs clearance.  \nSGS CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT: GLOBAL SERVICES AND LOCAL SOLUTIONS  \nSGS PCA prevents the importation of unsafe, substandard or counterfeit goods; it supports government authorities to enforce the implementation of obligatory legislations established for the protection of consumer’s health and safety and the environment.  \nPCA helps trade facilitation and protects the interests of traders: importers benefit from a faster customs clearance process because verification activities have been completed prior to shipment, and exporters do not take the risk to have their goods rejected at the country of destination because of noncompliance with the requirements.  \nSGS PCA benefits consumers as well as regulators, manufacturers, and the trade community. It enhances sustainable development and facilitates trade and access to the global markets.  \nAlthough product conformity requirements will vary, regulators, traders and consumers have expectations about the product that converge toward safety, quality, ecology, reliability and/or interoperability.  \nSGS PCA is not only a solution to assure the conformity of the products to be traded on a specific market; it is primarily an integrated service combining other automated solutions.  \nThese solutions facilitate the trade, accelerate the movement of goods and provide factual risk data to support decision-making for further investigations and market surveillance.  \nConformity Assessment programs support government authorities to enforce the implementation of obligatory legislations when public health, safety and the environment are at stake.  \nHOW IT WORKS  \n1.
