EN 1090 follow-up: keep production changes within the assessed scope
Check the actual certificate status and surveillance obligations with its issuer. Evaluate changed sites, operations and products before relying on an old scope; a new date on a file is not renewed evidence.
Start with the actual status and follow-up plan
Read the certificate, all scope annexes and the issuer’s current correspondence. Establish which entity, sites, products and operations are covered, which follow-up tasks apply and what unresolved findings remain. The word renewal in a quotation does not establish a universal expiry date or surveillance interval for every EN 1090 case.
Before a planned change, identify its effect on the actual assessed scope and ask the issuer what review or additional evidence is required. A move, outsourced operation, new material family or design change should not be hidden by leaving the old certificate in a tender folder. Record the response and the basis for any continued use.
A moved cutting operation changes the evidence
Conditional example: cutting is moved from the assessed factory to another workshop, while the same company name and product range remain. The old plant’s equipment and control records no longer describe that operation. Map the new location, responsibility, input and output traceability and actual controls; do not update the address only and treat the change as assessed.
Keep products made before and after the change identifiable. Resolve missing controls and evidence, then follow the responsible body’s decision for its assigned tasks. A consultant can coordinate the change package but cannot expand a certificate scope, remove a suspension or announce acceptance before the issuer decides.
Keep continuing control and decisions traceable
Maintain actual production records, changes, complaints and corrective evidence relevant to the applicable control requirements. Check that current work still matches assessed operations and declared product performance. Missing records cannot be replaced by backdated inspection entries or a signed statement that all controls happened.
Agree follow-up responsibilities and milestones from the real issuer requirements and production readiness. Separate ongoing manufacturer controls, external assessment and Kayra’s preparation work. Preserve unresolved status and product decisions; do not promise a fixed renewal fee, automatic extension or uninterrupted certificate use regardless of findings.
