Advanced Compliance Solutions Inc. completes audit to become CBTL under Nemko USA

To better serve manufacturers of electrical equipment to be sold worldwide, Advanced Compliance Solutions (ACS) taps Nemko USA for assistance and sponsorship of their CB Testing Laboratory (CBTL) program.  After a successful audit by three international members of the CB Scheme, ACS is now capable of testing and generating a CB report which is provided to NCB Nemko for issuance of the internationally recognized CB Certificate.  The CB Report is then used by the manufacturer to gain national certification in over 50 countries without the need for in-country re-testing.

“Our ability to offer a CB Certification as part of our testing package is a huge value-add for our customers that are selling Worldwide” said Michael Proffitt, VP of ACS. “We chose Nemko over other Agencies for their streamlined process, great value and honest commitment to helping partner labs succeed.”

Nemko sets high bar in CB Scheme

As an Issuing and Recognized NCB, Nemko, based in Oslo, Norway has long been among the top three CB Scheme members in terms of sheer volume, but also commands a significant lead in using those CB Certifications to attaining national certifications for manufacturers.

“Clients and partner labs associate the Nemko name with quality and the vast unquestioned acceptance of our CB Certificates/Reports demonstrates our superiority in this space.” states Andrew Robbins, East Coast Sales Manager for Nemko USA.  “We sought the partnership with ACS knowing they are a capable and valuable leader in their field that would fit well with Nemko’s goals and mission.”

Partnership

Nemko proudly brought ACS under their wing as a partner lab, a non-exclusive relationship whereby both organizations benefit from cooperative business activity.  The Nemko Direct Market Access program ACS uses frequently is a valued service for global approvals that perfectly complimented ACS’s entry into the CB Scheme.

“Via an ever improving relationship with Nemko, ACS now offers a complete test and approval process for customers with global aspirations” explains Doug Massey, Director of Safety at ACS.  “ACS can depend on Nemko’s involvement and guidance from the test plan phase through the issuance of the CB Certificate and leverage of that report for other mandatory national certifications.”
