=== Request certification for the Project ===
After uploading the [[Technical documentation]] of the Project, the [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Applicant]] must make the [[Request certification for your project]] of the Project, which will then be contacted by OHO to formalise the process, the following is highlighted:
* The [[#sing-up|user]] assigned to the [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Applicant]] must have all the required information in order to be contacted and verified.
* The Project must have all the fields corresponding to [[#data_upload|Basic data]] entered.
* The [[Parts list]] must have been entered [[#docs-upload|correctly]].
 
 
 
=== Project Corrections ===
[[File:Project comments.JPG|thumb|<small>'''Comments on a project'''</small>]]
If during the review of the Project documentation, the Reviewers team issues any non-conformities (''Reviews''), the [[Certifcation platform#applicant|applicant|Applicant]] must proceed to make the necessary corrections and edit the project information in the same way the information was entered.
* The communication channel to receive the non-conformities is the same [[#project_page|Project page]], in which the [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Applicant]] must log in regularly, these are displayed as comments superimposed on the [[Parts list]].
* Non-conformities on those items marked as ''Action Required'' must be addressed by the [[Certifcation platform#reviewers|Reviewers]].
* Corrections must be made in a timely manner, in order to expedite the certification process.
* The [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Applicant]], may comment on the ''Reviews'' or add further comments in order to communicate any issue resolution issues.
 
=== Receipt of the Certification Document ===
The final step of the [[Certification processes]], is the reception by the [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Applicant]], of the [[Certification processes#obs|Certification Document]], for which it is contacted by the [[#project_page|established channels]].
* The [[Certifcation platform#applicant|applicant]] must read in detail the document to be received.
* The [[Certifcation platform#applicant|applicant]] must accept the terms of the document.
* Finally, the [[Certifcation platform#applicant|applicant]], is directed to a page where he/she can download the document and fill in some fields about his/her experience during the [[Certification processes]].
 
== Coordinador ==
El [[Certifcation platform#coordinator|Coordinador]], como ente rector por parte de OHO, es responsable del [[Certification processes]] ya que monitorea, habilita e impulsa todas las etpas. Sus principales actividades son:
=== Designation of the Conformity Assessment Body (CAB) ===
[[File:user rights6.jpg|thumb|<small>'''Assignment of Assessor role to a user'''</small>]]]]
The [[Certifcation platform#cab-team|CAB-team]] must be designated and activated, once the [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Applicant]] performs the [[Request certification for your project]] of the Project, as this team must participate, among others, in the designation of the [[Certifcation platform#reviewers|Reviewers]].

* Visto bueno y firma de Autoridades por parte de OHO.
* Visto bueno y firma de Autoridades por parte de ente certificador externo para la validación según [[DIN Spec 3105]].
 
== Revisores ==
Los [[Certifcation platform#reviewers|Revisores]] tienen la tarea de analizar técnicamenbte toda la documentación del Proyecto, para lo cual, deben haber pasado por el [[#sing-up|proceso de registro]] de la misma manera que en el caso del [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Aplicante]]. También debe contar con el rol de ''certificarion_reviewer'', como se indicó en [[#reviewers-designation|Designación de Revisores]].
 
Cada [[Certifcation platform#reviewers|Revisor]] debe cumplir con los aspectos mencionados a continuación:
 
=== Análisis de la Documentación Técnica ===
* Ingresar a la [[#project_page|página del Proyecto]].
* Analizar toda la información disponible, especialmente, las instrucciones de ensamblaje, lo cual incluye:
** Referencias correctas entre las partes de los [[Technical drawings]] y la [[Parts list]] .

[[File:Project comments.JPG|thumb|<small>'''Comentarios en un proyecto'''</small>]]
[[File:Project action required.JPG|thumb|<small>'''Item marcado como ''Action required'''''</small>]]
En la [[#project_page|página del Proyecto]], se pueden realizar comentarios sobre aspectos técnicos, estos comentarios son la canal en el que se emiten las no conformidades.
 
Se debe emitir un comentario o no conformidad en los siguientes casos:
 
* Falta información para poder clasificar o reconnocer alguna pieza o conjunto.
* Falta información sobre algún proveedor (los enlaces a sitios web tienden a ser modificados).
* Falta información sobre alguna pieza comprada, para poder ubicarla en los mercados actuales.
* Faltan medidas u otras especificaciones en los [[Technical drawings]].
* Falta de coherencia en las especificaciones, con respecto al ensamblaje de las piezas.
* Faltan campos en la [[#part_list|Lista de piezas]].
* Dependiendo del tipo de ensamblaje:
** Debe existir para cada pieza, un [[Technical drawings|plano en PDF]] y su respectivo [[CAD files|Archivo CAD]]. (esto último, con la finalidad de que se pueda revisar la información 3D en otoros sistemas CAD distintos del que haya generado las piezas).
** Las piezas de impresión 3D, deben estar acompañadas de su archivo STL, además de su [[Technical drawings|plano en PDF]] y su [[CAD files|Archivo CAD]].
** Para circuitos impresos (PCB), se debe incluir las direcciones de sus componentes.
* En caso de información confusa o errores evidentes, se debe dejar un comentario amigable, señalando la equivocación en el item que corresponda.
* En caso de problemas con respecto al Proyecto en general, hay un campo extra en la [[#part_list|Lista de piezas]], donde se pueden agregar comentarios.
* Aquellos items que requieran alguna corrección por parte del [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Aplicante]], deben ser marcados como ''Action required'', en la [[#project_page|Página del proyecto]], acción ''Edit'', pestaña ''Part list''
* Este proceso se puede repetir mientras existan comentarios o no conformidades con correcciones por realizar y no esten aprobados todos los items de la [[#part_list|Lista de piezas]], a través de la cual, siempre se debe mantener comunicación con el [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Aplicante]].
=== Aprobación del Proyecto ===
[[File:Project aproved.JPG|thumb|<small>'''Item marcado como ''Approved'''''</small>]]
Luego de que se han resuelto, todas las no conformidades, se debe:
* Marcar cada uno de los item en la [[#part_list|Lista de piezas]] como ''Approved'', en la [[#project_page|Página del proyecto]], acción ''Edit'', pestaña ''Part list''.
* Agregar un comentario final que incluya 'OK, FINISHED'.
* Notificar al [[Certifcation platform#coordinator|Coordinador]], sobre la Aprobación del Proyecto.
== Equipo de evaluación de conformidad (CAB) ==
El [[Certifcation platform#cab-team|Equipo CAB]] tiene acceso los datos de contacto de los [[Certifcation platform#reviewers|Revisores]] y del [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Aplicante]], pudiendo siempre intervenir en la resolución de no coformidades y obteniendo información directa para la emisión del [[Certification processes#obs|Documento de Certificación]].
=== Validación de información del Aplicante y los Revisores ===
Entre algunas de las actividades del [[Certifcation platform#cab-team|Equipo CAB]], se tiene:
* Verifica algunas formalidades del Proyecto.
* En conjunto con el [[Certifcation platform#coordinator|Coordinador]] Apertura el [[Certification processes]] ya que participa en la [[#reviewers-designation|Designación de Revisores]].
=== Emisión del Documento de Certificación ===
Una vez que el [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Aplicante]] haya ingresado toda la [[#docs-upload|Documentación técnica]], al menos dos veces, el [[Certifcation platform#cab-team|Equipo CAB]] puede emitir una certificación donde se valide el cumplimiento de la [[DIN Spec 3105]]. Esto culmina el proceso de revisión, el cual pudiera ser abierto si:
* Alguna persona presenta quejas ante el [[Certifcation platform#cab-team|Equipo CAB]] por:
** La publicación de la documentación ya no es accesible total o parcialmente.
** Los términos de la licencia se han modificado y ya no cumplen con los requisitos de la norma [[DIN Spec 3105]].
** Cualquier información relevante ha sido alterada o eliminada de la [[Certifcation platform]].
* Teniendo en cuenta la importancia de las quejas presentadas, el [[Certifcation platform#cab-team|Equipo CAB]] puede anular la certificación en curso y volver a abrir el [[Certification processes]] una nueva revisión de la [[Technical documentation]].
* El [[Certifcation platform#applicant|Aplicante]] puede subir nuevamente documentación que ya ha sido certificada y aprobada, en este caso, la misma no requiere ser revisada otra vez.
