WITNESSED MANUFACTURER’S TESTING (WMT)

The purpose of the WMT scheme is to define the criteria for testing on the manufacturer's premises. These tests are conducted by personnel from the manufacturer's testing laboratory and are witnessed in their entirety by a CyCert representative who signs off on the test reports.
The WMT scheme evaluates a manufacturer's laboratory's capability to conduct pertinent tests for product certification and surveillance. This assessment considers manufacturers' laboratory capabilities in terms of personnel, facilities, and equipment necessary to test specific products for which they are responsible for design, development, and production.
Recognizing the market's need for self-contained facilities, the CyCert developed this procedure, which establishes the requirements for a manufacturer to follow in order to obtain certification for its products under strictly controlled conditions. These procedures are an alternative to using a third-party laboratory to conduct tests.
Prior to granting certification and issuing the corresponding certificate, CyCert reserves the right to conduct additional tests.
The manufacturer is only permitted to conduct tests on its own products under this procedure if he has demonstrated an effective and comprehensive technical capability for those standards.
To obtain authorisation from CyCert to conduct internal product testing, a manufacturer must meet the following criteria:
- to have a testing laboratory that complies with the essential requirements of ISO / IEC 17025;
- a formal assessment conducted by CyCert via an audit demonstrating compliance with the essential requirements of ISO / IEC 17025.
CyCert surveillance can be conducted throughout the certificate's validity period on the basis of tests performed in the manufacturer's testing laboratory.
