As part of the Agrément Certification process, there are ongoing obligations for the Certificate Holder and the BBA to maintain the Certificate. The BBA carries out 2 types of maintenance activity once the Certificate has been issued: factory surveillance visits and Certificate Reviews. These activities ensure the ongoing compliance of the Certificate, the production and the certified product(s).
