What You Can Expect

Outcomes reflect recent client engagements. They’re indicative, not guarantees; specifics depend on your device, class, and documentation status.

Faster distributor onboarding

Clear Article 15 appointment + contact path reduces back-and-forth during checks.

Example: EU reseller accepted PRRC evidence (appointment letter + responsibility matrix) in the first review cycle.

Audit-ready documentation

Centralized evidence of PRRC oversight supports NB/distributor queries without scramble.

Example: Technical file + EU DoC updates logged with PRRC sign-off visible in QMS.

Operational continuity

Pre-defined escalation for PMS, vigilance and labeling/UDI changes keeps releases on track.

Example: Field safety update triaged and documented within the defined response window.

PRRC Duties (Article 15)

These are the core responsibilities the PRRC oversees. Each line is short and linkable for reference.

  1. Conformity before release: Confirm each device meets MDR/IVDR requirements prior to being placed on the market. #
  2. Quality system support: Ensure the QMS defines, documents, and enables PRRC responsibilities and records. #
  3. Technical docs & DoC: Keep technical documentation and the EU Declaration of Conformity current and available. #
  4. Post-market surveillance: Oversee PMS/PMCF inputs, reviews, and evidence of actions taken. #
  5. Vigilance & FSCA: Support incident trending, reportability decisions, and Field Safety Corrective Actions. #
  6. Labeling & UDI: Verify labeling/UDI changes are controlled, approved, and implemented consistently. #
  7. Stakeholder interfaces: Provide a clear contact path for distributors, importers, notified bodies, and regulators. #
  8. Audit-ready evidence: Maintain appointment, responsibility matrix, and oversight records for review. #
