Bicycle accessory documentation for the Netherlands
LIFA coordinated supplier checks and missing tests for a Dutch bicycle-accessory range, delivering technical documentation for 35 SKUs.
- The buyer
- A Rotterdam, Netherlands importer of bicycle accessories for EU retail chains.
- The product scope
- Bicycle lights, bells, reflectors, and racks; 35 SKUs.
What needed to change?
A retail chain demanded full technical documentation (CE, EN standards, test reports); the current supplier could produce none of it, risking a listing loss.
How LIFA managed the work
We audited documentation across 6 suppliers against the retail chain's checklist.
We qualified 3 suppliers with complete technical files.
We arranged gap-filling tests for 8 SKUs lacking reports.
We built a documentation library per SKU for future listings.
Full documentation delivered for 35 SKUs; retail listing secured; two additional chains signed on the strength of the technical file.
From our company project database, with the work, approvals and results shown together.
What this project shows
Build the documentation file around each SKU and the customer's actual checklist. A generic factory certificate did not meet this retail buyer's requirements.
Client identities, supplier contacts and confidential commercial terms are withheld from this public company record.
