The Certification Process
6.1
Technical Brief RSP 100
On receipt of your application, the application will be logged in and given a unique job number. The
application/technical brief s will be reviewed.
If information is missing then a Problem on Hold Letter will be started before the test report is given to the reviewer.
After review the Problem on Hold (POH) will be emailed to you.
Only on receipt of all documentation and payment will the certification process be commenced. At this stage the
application fee becomes non-refundable.
6.2
Service Level
Timco Engineering, Inc. strives to provide the highest level of customer service possible to ensure that our
customers get prompt certification whilst still ensuring that our integrity is maintained. In view of this we have set
ourselves service levels with respect to our certification activities.
As our customer you should expect form us the following levels of service:
A Project Letter Email will be sent to you upon receipt of the application.
Notification of certification decision within 5 additional working days.
This may be to request additional information prior to a certification being granted or to inform you that the
application was successful.
You will be notified on completion of the preliminary evaluation if there are any delays foreseen due to workload.
We will keep you informed to ensure that your expectations can be met.
After certification is granted by Timco, product information will be provided to Industry Canada for inclusion on the
Radio Equipment List (REL). You must not make your product available to the Canadian marketplace until the
apparatus is listed on the REL. The time frame for including the apparatus on the REL is based on Industry
Canada’s workload and is outside of Timco’s control.
During the technical evaluation it may be necessary for more documentation or test data to be provided. Again, you
will be contacted in writing to notify you of the additional information required. Please note that applications that
have been inactive for more than 30 days will be closed. A new application must be made should this situation
occur. A new application fee will also be required.

D:\106735552.doc
____________________________________________________________________________
6.3
Confidentiality
The certification scheme being used involves close contact with Industry Canada in their capacity as regulator.
During the course of our operations for this scheme it may be necessary to supply, or make available for inspection,
records relating to your product as evidence of compliance to applicable standards.
Confidentiality for all other third parties will be maintained unless written permission from the certificate holder is
received.
7.
Certification Number Format
All certified equipment must be labeled with a unique certification number. The certification number should be
preceded by the terms “IC:” then the applicant’s Company Number (CN) and Unique Product Number (UPN).
The CN is assigned by Industry Canada and the UPN by the Certificate holder.
How do I obtain a Company Number (CN)?
Company Numbers must be obtained by electronically filing a request through IC’s website, prior to applying for
equipment certification. Provide the full company name, mailing address, telephone number, fax number, contact
name and email address to Timco. Timco will then submit the request for IC Company Number electronically to IC.
Please request a company number before sending your submission. A CN can only be obtained via the certification
and engineering bureau.
The certification number shall appear as follows:
IC: XXXXXX – YYYYYYYY
Where
The letters IC have no other meaning or purpose than to identify that Industry Canada Certification Number
XXXXXX – YYYYYYYY is the certification number
XXXXXX is the company number (CN) made up of at most 6 alpha-numeric characters
(A – Z, 0 – 9) assigned by Industry Canada
YYYYYYYY is the Unique Product Number (UPN) made up of at most 11 alpha-numeric characters
(A – Z, 0 – 9) assigned by the applicant
The alpha-numeric characters are limited to capital letters (A – Z) and digits (0 – 9). Other characters, such as #, / or
– shall not be used. An example of a certification label is as follows:
IC: 21A – A3
Where 21A is the CN and A3 is the UPN

____________________________________________________________________________
8.
Modification of certified equipment
Certain Modifications made to previously certified apparatus may affect the validity of the certification. It is the
responsibility of the certificate holder to ensure that a product continues to comply. We therefore require that the
certificate holder inform Timco Engineering, Inc. or Industry Canada to determine whether modifications require recertification.
9.
Certification retention and audits
9.1
Continuing compliance
It is a requirement that the certificate holder ensure that all production units of certified equipment continue to
comply with all requirements relating to the original certification. Receipt by Timco Engineering, Inc. of a signed
application form signifies acceptance of these conditions.
The adherence of subsequent production units to the technical quality and characteristics under which certification
was originally issued is implicit. To this end, periodic testing shall be carried out by certificate holders to ensure
continuing compliance with the technical standards.
ISO / IEC 17065 and the Industry Canada certifications requirements detailed in CB-01, CB-02 and CB-03 require
that a certification body performs surveillance activities to ensure continuing compliance of certified products.
Timco Engineering, Inc. employs a system of performing random audits to monitor continuing compliance. This
random audit procedure will mean that a production sample of a certified product may be requested form the
certificate holder and be subjected to some additional testing. This sample should be provided at no cost to Timco
Engineering, Inc. Refer to section 4 for detail costs associated with the audit program.
Note: In accordance with Industry Canada document CB-03 section 10.3, Industry Canada may request, from
certificate holders, random radio apparatus samples at the certificate holders expense for post-certificate audit testing
or as a result of radio interference complaints. This request is independent from any that Timco may make to uphold
a certificate.
If any non-compliances are noted then corrective action will be required from the certificate holder.
9.2
Transfer of certificates
Industry Canada requires that all certified products have a current certificate from a recognized CB. If for any
reason you have certificates from a CB which has ceased to operate or has had recognition withdrawn then you must
have the certification transferred to another Certification Body.
Timco Engineering, Inc. offers a transfer service to aid you with this requirement. However, a full application
package must be submitted. Please contact the certification department prior to submitting such an application to
further discuss the requirements.
10.
Withdrawal of certification
Withdrawal of certification can occur if non-compliance with the certification requirements has been identified and
suitable corrective action has not been implemented.
On withdrawal of certification by Timco Engineering, Inc. Industry Canada, the applicant, and the customer will be
notified that the certification is being withdrawn and that the equipment will be removed from the Radio Equipment
Page 14 of 15
D:\106735552.doc
____________________________________________________________________________
List (REL). All offending equipment must be removed from service and the equipment must NOT be made
available for sale in Canada. The Applicant and the Customer will be notified by email.
11.
