Compliance & Legal
We provide you with insight and accompany you in the area of product compliance & Open-Source-Software compliance.
In a global economy, it is crucial to bring products to markets worldwide, while taking into account the respective country-specific legal requirements. Only then business activity in compliance with the law can be ensured.
The variety of legal requirements covers a wide range of aspects that affect every product, from radio regulations to product labelling and chemical and material compliance regulations to recycling management and more. In addition, the requirements for product conformity are becoming increasingly complex due to country- and market-specific differences in regulations as well as relevant regulations from other areas such as critical raw materials or cyber security.
Compliance plays an enormously important role not only for material products but also for software. It is a crucial aspect of Open–Source–Software (OSS) usage and development to have a OSS-compliance-system implemented ensuring the compliant and secure use of Open–Source–Software. Therefore, policies and guidelines need to be established and implemented within organizations.
Our ambition: to offer clarity and to accompany you on the way to product conformity.
