RIS-2700-RST Iss 1
Rail Industry Standard for Verification of Conformity of Engineering Change to Rail Vehicles
Synopsis
The purpose of this RIS is to set out a process which can be adopted by organisations that are undertaking projects that require verification of conformity of an engineering change to rail vehicles against applicable requirements and by organisations that carry out the verification work.
Summary Of Changes
A change in regulations has ended the mandatory use of Vehicle Acceptance Bodies (VABs) for independent conformance assessment and certification of rail vehicles, and introduced other specific bodies such as Notified Bodies (NoBos) Designated Bodies (DEBOS) and Assessment Bodies (AsBos). Mandatory requirements have been replaced by suitable requirements and guidance in this RIS
