Missing Evidence

So… it’s nearly time to submit your safety justifications but you don’t have several key pieces of evidence. Don’t panic!


Given the review periods required by external and internal independent assessment/approval bodies (e.g. AsBo, SRP) it is inevitable that there will be pieces of compliance evidence outstanding at submission time.

Be clear in your safety justification as to what evidence is missing or incomplete and be clear on what is required, why it is required, when it is required by, who will provide this evidence and what the consequences would be if it were not provided in time.


Be sure to also raise this in discussion with the independent bodies before and after you have made your submission. Be clear on how the outstanding evidence can be ‘drip-fed’ to assessors to demonstrate that the required information is being provided as required so safety requirements are being mitigated and closed.


If you need expert guidance to navigate this process or ensure your safety justification is comprehensive and effective, we’re ready to support you every step of the way. Feel free to get in touch!
