The document discusses EOTA and its role in relation to the Construction Products Regulation (CPR). It provides information on key elements of the CPR including harmonized standards, European Technical Assessments, assessment and verification of constancy of performance, notified bodies, declarations of performance, and CE marking. It also describes EOTA's processes for developing European Assessment Documents and issuing European Technical Assessments based on testing products against EADs.
It is essencial to safeguard the value and current recognition of the CE marking by implementing the CPR in a way that the identification of construction products are characterized by the declared performance based on a harmonized technical assessment being the result of national consent.

For any area that needs improvement, the first step is to replace commodity-based standards with performance-based standards.
“Performance" here always relates to "total building performance," so that, even though you can talk about the performance of a component part or sub-system, it must be measured in relation to the performance of the total building system.

The increasing complexity of the construction industry is driving the evolution of the industrial management mindset toward a new post-industrial, or performance paradigm. More and more it is becoming critical for the construction industry to assess and align its core competitive capabilities with its contextual environment.

WSB14 - Session 111-1 CEN presentation: overview Rules and Regulations and EN...Chris Hamans
Presentation in session 111 during the World Sustainable Building Conference 2014 in Barcelona (28-30th .Oct. 2014)
The theme of the WSB14 was: "Sustainability. Are we moving as quickly as we should? It is up to us!"
Session 111 (out of 144 sessions) had to answer the question: "Are we moving in the same direction?"
This presentation by CEN-CENELEC standardisation gave an overview of EU's rules, regulations and policies and the role of EN standards with regard to this.
This presentation was one out of the 5 from this session 111. After a questioning, answering and discussion with the audience the session concluded: "No, we are not moving in the same direction!"

The IEC CB (Certified Body) scheme is the largest international product certification scheme.
The scheme is the world’s first truly international system for mutual acceptance of test reports and certificates dealing with safety of electrical and electronic components, equipment and products.
A CB-certificate is documentation of product compliance with the relevant standard. A certificate gives access to, and simplifies national certification, in more than 60 member nations and is also widely recognized in other countries.

Project Portfolio Management (PPM) is the centralized management of the processes, methods, and technologies used by project managers and project management offices (PMOs) to analyze and collectively manage current or proposed projects based on numerous key characteristics.
Our way of “Mentoring” desires to affect higher rates of stability and satisfaction in a changing business landscape that calls the mentee into new collaborative relationships and new systems of delivery.
Mentoring is an effort to integrate the formation dimensions of Spiritual development, Business development, Intellectual development, and Human development as the mentee moves into a new phase of his/her life.
4. STANDARDS: WHY?
Harmonised Assessments and You:
Their Role in our Everyday Lives
nEnhance health, safety and quality of life
nFacilitate global trade and market access
nSupport product reliability and quality
nReduce costs, improve supplier relations
nGuide business communications and marketing
nAdvance innovation and new technologies
nSupport regulatory goals and compliance

5. CPR: WHY? AIM
25/10/2016 EOTA - ePower&Building 2016 5
The CPR aims to ensure that reliable performance-related data is made available, by means of
Declara<ons of Performance, in rela<on to construc<on products being placed on the European
market.
The primary purpose of the CPR is to break down technical barriers to trade in order to ensure the
free movement of construction products across Member States within the European Union. It does
this by harmonising those elements which previously led to barriers by providing for:
✓ a system of harmonised technical specifications (over 450 harmonised standards for
construction products (hENs) are currently in force),
✓ reduction of the financial burden on manufacturers, in particular small and medium sized
enterprises.
✓ improved transparency and effectiveness of the existing measures.
✓ an agreed system of attestation of conformity and verification of constancy for eachproduct
family (as set out in the harmonised technical specifications),
✓ a framework of notified bodies, and
✓ the mandatory CE marking of construction products as a passport to the internal market.
It is important to note that the CPR does not aim to harmonise national building codes.
7. ✓ The CPR simplifies and modernizes the regulatory environment for construc?on products while
guaranteeing the credibility of the CE mark, as well as its predominance over other na?onal
cer?fica?ons.
✓ The primary requirement of the CPR is that, from 1 July 2013, manufacturers, when placing a
construc?on product on the market must make a Declara?on of Performance (DoP) for the
product and affix the CE Mark.
✓ The objec?ve of the CPR is not to define the safety of construc?on products, but to ensure that
reliable informa?on is presented in rela?on to their performance - and all this in a harmonized
manner across Europe. This is achieved by providing a “common technical language”, offering
uniform assessment methods for the performance of construc?on products.
✓ The CE Marking for construc?on products is a tool to communicate informa?on, like for example
a passport; it is not a mark of quality. The CE Marking indicates that the manufacturer is taking
responsibility for the conformity of the construc?on product with the declared performance (in
the DoP) and for compliance with the CPR and other relevant Union harmonisa?on providing
for affixing CE Marking. The CPR does not set any requirements for the performance of
construc?on products.
✓ The CPR recognizes the possibility of using electronic means and websites for the provision of
Declara?on of Performance.
