Your management says: 'Find a cheaper way to get cybersecurity documentation for our fitness bands.' Here is the comparison: €9,000 per model at a consultancy — or €99 at REDCheck.

You manufacture fitness bands. Your EU consultancy quotes €5,000–€9,000 per model. You have 5 models = €25,000–€45,000. Your department head says: 'Find a cheaper way.' REDCheck generates the 5 PDF documents under Art. 21 and Annex V for €99 per model. 5 models = €495. Same legal structure. 99% cost reduction. Download the sample dossier and compare.

Three cost mistakes fitness band manufacturers make

❌
COMMON ERROR

"We need a Notified Body for wearables"

Not necessarily. If you fully apply EN 18031-2, Art. 17(3)(a) allows Module A. No Notified Body required.

❌
COMMON ERROR

"Cheaper documentation won't pass market surveillance"

Art. 21 and Annex V define the content requirements. The cost of producing the documentation does not affect its legal validity.

❌
COMMON ERROR

"We can bundle cybersecurity with our existing EMC/safety contract"

Your existing lab may offer cybersecurity as an add-on — but at €5,000–€9,000. REDCheck generates it independently for €99.
