Article 7 MANUFACTURER OBLIGATIONS: manufacturers must ensure that products placed on the market are designed + manufactured in accordance with Annex I accessibility requirements (Article 7(1)); prepare technical documentation per Annex IV + carry out conformity-assessment procedure per Annex IV (Article 7(2)); draw up EU declaration of conformity per Article 16 + affix CE marking per Article 17 (Article 7(3)-(4)); keep technical documentation + EU DoC for 5 years after the product is placed on the market (Article 7(5)); ensure procedures for series production remain in conformity (Article 7(6)); take corrective action when the product is found not in conformity (Article 7(8)); identify themselves on the product including indication of trade name + registered office or address (Article 7(7)); cooperate with competent authority (Article 7(9)). Article 8 AUTHORISED REPRESENTATIVE: manufacturer not established in the Union may by written mandate appoint an authorised representative (AR) who shall, at minimum: keep the EU DoC + technical documentation for 5 years (Article 8(2)(a)); further to a reasoned request of competent authority provide all information + documentation necessary to demonstrate the product's conformity (Article 8(2)(b)); cooperate with competent authorities, at their request, on any action taken to eliminate non-compliance with this Directive (Article 8(2)(c)). The AR does NOT prepare the technical documentation + does NOT carry out the conformity-assessment procedure - those remain manufacturer obligations.
This control maps to 2 controls across 2 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.
Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
The graph holds this control, the 2 it maps to, and the evidence behind each claim, over MCP and REST.
