As the right technical partner for machinery and safety requirements for battery plant owner, TÜV SÜD is the one-point contact between plant owner and suppliers to facilitate seamless communication. We provide continuous status reporting of compliance fulfillment and gap analysis with measures needed based on regular communication. In addition, we understand your concerns when setting up a new battery production plant:

• Supplier management - It is important to ensure that the suppliers manufacture and deliver equipment in accordance with all regulations and specification relevant for the country of placing the equipment on the market. They must be able to provide full documentation including certificates, manuals, and technical data sheets. Their operation should also be in accordance with social responsibility regulations.
  
• Compliance and safety - As the equipment and installations must be considered as a workplace for many employees, compliance with national HSE-requirements is necessary. The operation of the plant must comply with all applicable national safety regulations and, at best, international best-practice approaches such as wastewater-treatment, electrical safety and many more.
  
• Building and operational permit - According to local building law, the fire protection concept and the corresponding safety systems must be finally approved by the building authorities.
  
• Timeline and cost- It is also vital that the setting up of a battery production plan proceeds according to schedule and milestones set in the initial planning phase. This includes ensuring suppliers delivery in accordance with the timeline. Any delay can result in a loss of money.
