CHA Selects Cognitive Solutions to Address CPSIA Requirements

ELMWOOD PARK, New Jersey, October 30, 2009 – The Craft and Hobby Association (CHA) today announced a strategic partnership with Cognitive Solutions to assist its members with CPSIA compliance and brand value. Three options provide members’ flexibility based on their size, regulatory requirements, and supply chain challenges. Each system provides levels of compliance and automation while providing consumers anywhere-anytime access to compliance information.

Consumers, vendors, retailers, and regulators are given venues to assure what, where, and how safe a product is on the web, via the phone, or in the store. Members can easily produce certificates tied to specific products or production runs with supporting information for regulatory agencies and stakeholders while managing, provisioning and archiving information.

The CHA, it’s members, and Cognitive Solutions are using proven program management and rapid implementation processes to adopt and deploy the solution in a matter of hours to days assuring the company, customer, and consumer that the CPSIA is being followed with minimum impact, expense, and without exposure. Members have access to computer-based training, automated installation, help, tutorials, and remote support during and after deployment. An innovative compliance advisor maintains up to date information on what must be done versus the confusion and expense of unnecessary testing or interpretation.

The CHA, it’s members, and Cognitive Solutions are committed to meeting the CPSIA with proven solutions for small, medium, and large businesses manufacturing products domestically or abroad. Compliance does not have to be confusing or expensive. This partnership provides assured products around the corner or around the world.
