Can GMED Really
Assess My Device in 30
working days?

Through the ExpressCert Program, GMED coordinates and ensures that resources are available to devote time to your device assessment. Before getting started, we will perform a preliminary review to determine if we need more information. The clock starts as soon as we receive the last piece of information needed from you or at the end of the audit! As long as there are no major issues or non-conformities, within those 30 working days, you will receive the opinion of our committee.*

* Our ability to accommodate ExpressCert certification depends on your capacity and on how quickly you can provide us with the required information needed to assess the regulatory compliance of your device. Note that a positive outcome of our assessments (issuance of a certificate) within 30 working days cannot be guaranteed.
** Please note that the ExpressCert service does not guarantee a positive result of our assessments (issuance of a certificate) within 30 working days and doesn’t modify or accelerate the duration of our evaluations (such as audit duration or the time required to assess the conformity of the product).
