Compliance Platform
ECP is the neutral EU compliance marketplace. Non-EU manufacturers submit one structured request and receive proposals from vetted Notified Bodies, Authorized Representatives, Testing Laboratories, and Consultants — across all major EU regulations.
An EU compliance marketplace is a platform where non-EU manufacturers submit structured compliance requests and receive proposals from vetted EU service providers — including Notified Bodies, Authorized Representatives, Testing Laboratories, Certification Bodies, and Regulatory Consultants. Unlike working with a single consultancy, a marketplace gives you access to multiple providers simultaneously, so you can compare scope, timeline, and pricing before committing. ECP is designed to be fully neutral: we do not provide compliance services ourselves.
Unlike a single consultancy that recommends itself, a marketplace has no conflict of interest — it connects you to multiple providers and lets you compare. ECP does not provide compliance services; we provide access to those who do.

An EU compliance marketplace is a platform where non-EU manufacturers can submit structured compliance requests and receive proposals from vetted EU compliance service providers — including Notified Bodies, Authorized Representatives, Testing Laboratories, Certification Bodies, and Regulatory Consultants. Unlike a single consultancy, a marketplace offers competitive choice without the structural conflict of interest of a provider recommending itself.
A regulatory consultancy sells its own services and naturally recommends its own approach. ECP is a neutral marketplace: we do not provide compliance services ourselves, so our only incentive is to match you with the provider that best fits your specific device, risk class, and timeline. You receive multiple proposals and choose.
ECP covers five service categories: Notified Bodies (MDR and IVDR conformity assessment), EU Authorized Representatives (EC REP for medical devices, GPSR RP for consumer products), Testing Laboratories (EMC, RED, safety testing), Certification Bodies (ISO 13485, MDSAP, product certification), and Regulatory Consultants (CE strategy, clinical evaluation, QMS implementation).
Submitting a request on ECP is completely free for applicants. Service providers pay a subscription fee to receive and respond to relevant requests. There is no commission on transactions and no hidden fees for applicants.
In addition to product certification and testing, ECP covers 11 representative and compliance service types for non-EU manufacturers and businesses entering EU, UK and Swiss markets:
