Navigating machinery compliance within the EU is becoming increasingly complex. New regulations, harmonized standards, and extensive documentation requirements make it critical to know where to start in order to avoid delays and rework.

The Structured Testing and Evaluation Process for Machinery (STEP4M) factsheet provides a clear and structured overview of Intertek’s four-step process for machinery compliance – from early concept review to final conformity assessment and CE marking.

In the factsheet, you will learn, among other things:

  • How a structured compliance process reduces redesign, retesting, and time-to-market
  • What is included in each STEP, from regulatory applicability analysis to full CE readiness
  • How risk assessment according to ISO 12100 and functional safety are integrated into the process
  • Flexible engagement models tailored to the maturity of your project
  • What documentation is required to support market surveillance and conformity

Whether you are a design engineer, compliance manager, or product owner, this factsheet helps you turn regulatory complexity into a controlled, step-by-step process toward market access in the EU.
