To maintain a voting system certification under the Election
Assistance Commission (EAC) program, the manufacturer must
agree to:
1. Represent a voting system as certified only when it is
authorized by the EAC and consistent with the procedures and
requirements of the Testing and Certification Program Manual
(the Manual).
2. Produce and permanently affix an EAC certification label
to all production units of the certified system.
3. Notify the EAC of changes to any system previously
certified by the EAC pursuant to the requirements of the Manual.
4. Permit an EAC representative to verify manufacturer quality
control by coordinating with EAC efforts to test and review
fielded voting systems consistent with Section 8.6 of the Manual.
5. Permit an EAC representative to verify manufacturer quality
control by conducting periodic inspections of manufacturing
facilities consistent with Chapter 8 of the Manual.
6. Cooperate with any EAC inquiries and investigations into a
certified system's compliance with voting system standards or
the procedural requirements of the Manual.
7. Report to the Program Director any known malfunction of
a voting system holding a current EAC Certification. A
malfunction is defined as a failure of the voting system,
not caused by operator or administrative error, which causes
the system to fail or otherwise not operate as designed.
8. Certify that the manufacturer is not barred or otherwise
prohibited by statute regulation or ruling from doing business
in the United States.
9. Adhere to all procedural requirements of the Manual.
