Person Responsible for Regulatory Compliance (PRRC), EU Authorised Representative (EUAR) and UKRP

PRRC Service

Simplimedica provides Person Responsible for Regulatory Compliance (PRRC) services fully aligned with the requirements of the EU MDR (Regulation (EU) 2017/745) and EU IVDR (Regulation (EU) 2017/746). Under these regulations, every manufacturer placing a medical device or in-vitro diagnostic device on the EU market must formally appoint at least one PRRC to oversee and ensure continuous regulatory compliance.

For small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that may not have the internal resources, expertise, or capacity to employ a full-time regulatory specialist, Simplimedica offers a professional outsourced PRRC solution. This service provides manufacturers with access to highly experienced regulatory professionals who act as their designated PRRC, guaranteeing complete alignment with EU MDR/IVDR requirements.
