RCDEN’s registration review

RCDEN records the baseline checks and any conditions on registration.

When this applies

Suppliers leave this section for RCDEN. Registering a supplier is separate from approving a particular activity.

12.1

RCDEN identity, ownership, sanctions and evidence review

What to enter

Reference the identity/ownership, sanctions and relevant evidence checks, with the date. Retain the underlying review record rather than copying sensitive details into the form.

RCDEN verifies claims against the relevant registry or issuing body where practicable: match the legal entity, certification scope and validity; check sanctions ownership/control and resolve potential matches. Keep the evidence source, check date, reviewer and outcome.

Before affected work, RCDEN records a private requirements review: source document, clause and edition; applicability and reason; required evidence and contractual flowdown; deadline; approver and any open action. Mark unresolved points as unresolved. Use Part A for work-specific obligations and Part P for product assurance. Do not publish client documents.

Where to find it / what to do next

RCDEN completes this review. Record the checked legal entity, relevant ownership, sanctions and evidence results with the review date.
Confirm uncertain or conflicting evidence through the relevant issuer or authority rather than treating a missing search result as a final decision.
