End-to-end bill of material assessment and conversion for RoHS compliance

Non-compliance with RoHS regulations could expose your company and its products to sanctions such as “stop ship” orders, fines and negative brand perception. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer to ensure their products are RoHS Compliant and that they possess all supporting documentation in accordance with due diligence.

Frequently Asked Questions

A RoHS BoM Assessment is a detailed review of the components, materials, finishes, and subassemblies within an electrical or electronic product to determine whether they comply with applicable RoHS requirements. The assessment helps manufacturers identify non-compliant components, document compliance status, and establish the due diligence needed to demonstrate regulatory compliance.

Yes. Intertek can evaluate your existing product, determine the RoHS compliance status of each component, identify non-compliant or end-of-life parts, and recommend suitable replacement components or materials. The conversion process helps manufacturers transition products into a compliant state while minimizing disruptions to production and supply chains.

Yes. Intertek can create a bill of materials from custom build-to-print drawings and assess the compliance of sub-materials, finishes, and components identified within those drawings. This service is particularly valuable for legacy products or products with incomplete supply chain documentation.

Supplier declarations are an important part of compliance but are often incomplete, outdated, or inconsistent across a complex supply chain. A BoM assessment consolidates supplier information, validates component compliance, identifies potential gaps, and documents due diligence activities. This provides a stronger compliance position and helps reduce the risk of product non-compliance, stop-ship orders, fines, and reputational damage.
