A few things to remember

  • If you can answer any questions quickly, concisely and thoroughly your application will be processed faster.
  • If your supporting data is sent in an organized method, the reviewer can review much quicker and with fewer questions.
  • It is generally less expensive and time consuming to have someone on your team organize your data than the product evaluation company.
  • By submitting organized supporting documents keeps your project on time and on budget.
  • Please send any tables, figures or illustrations that are to be embedded in your report in a Microsoft compatible electronic format.
  • Any correspondence and questions from UES will reference the tentative (pending) report number assigned to your application. You can also use this number to track your project process status online.
