ATS Group, we specialize in supporting manufacturers through the complex process of obtaining the Type Approval for their Vehicles and components. As a Technical Service designated by multiple Authorities and an accredited inspection body, ATS plays a key role in helping manufacturers navigate the UNECE R 94 certification process.

Here’s how ATS can assist you:

1. Initial Assessment and Evaluation ATS conducts thorough evaluations of the manufacturing processes to ensure compliance with UNECE R 94 requirements. Our team performs an initial assessment of the production process, ensuring that all procedures are in place to guarantee the safety and integrity of the Vehicle during frontal collisions.

2. Frontal Crash Testing and Inspection Our expert inspectors carry out detailed testing to verify that the vehicle meets the structural requirements set out in UNECE R 94. This includes testing the Vehicle’s ability to withstand frontal impacts while protecting the occupants. We help manufacturers identify any areas of improvement before the official certification testing takes place.

3. Homologation Certification After successful testing and inspection, ATS prepares the final inspection report. This report, along with the evidence from testing, is submitted to the relevant Authorities for homologation Approval. Once the vehicle meets all UNECE R 94 criteria, we facilitate the issuance of the Type Approval certificate, which confirms that the Vehicle is compliant with the Regulation.

4. Periodic Inspections and Conformity of Production (CoP) Once a Vehicle is homologated, ATS continues to support manufacturers by conducting regular CoP inspections. These inspections ensure that the vehicle production remains consistent with the original approval and that all vehicles produced meet the safety standards required by UNECE R 94.

5. Global Standards Compliance ATS is an accredited inspection body, complying with ISO/IEC 17020:2012 standards, and capable of conducting inspections according to various international standards, including UNECE Regulations. This allows us to provide seamless support for manufacturers who need to meet the requirements of multiple markets, ensuring that their Vehicles are homologated for sale worldwide.
