  2. Execute a written mandate defining tasks (MDR Art. 11 duties).
  3. Register the manufacturer and EC REP as economic operators (SRN) in EUDAMED when modules apply.
  4. Ensure labels and IFU include EC REP name and address as required.
  5. Maintain continuous access to technical documentation for NB and authority requests.
