Global TIC Match Pro

Finding a lab is usually not the problem.

Knowing which lab is actually worth contacting is.

If you work in TIC, Product Compliance, Regulatory, R&D, QA, Reliability, or product certification, you have probably faced this situation:

You know what needs to be tested.

You may even know the standard.

But your usual laboratory says:

“We can’t do this.”

So you start searching.

You find dozens of companies — yet you still do not know:

• Which physical facility can actually perform the test?
• Is the capability available at that specific site, or only somewhere else in the organization?
• Does “we support this standard” mean full testing, partial testing, or pre-compliance only?
• Is the laboratory accredited for the required scope?
• Is formal scheme recognition required?
• Which candidates are actually worth contacting first?
• What should you ask before requesting a quotation?

The real problem is often not finding laboratory names.

It is knowing which laboratories are truly worth asking.

Global TIC Match Pro is an AI-guided laboratory matching tool designed for exactly this problem.

Tell it about your:

• Product
• Test requirement
• Certification request
• Target market
• Standard or scheme
• Customer requirement
• Competitor claim
• Or a test your existing laboratory cannot perform

It will help clarify the requirement, conduct live web research, evaluate available evidence, and match you with research-qualified laboratory candidates.

Not More Search Results. Better Candidates.

A conventional search engine can tell you:

“These companies appear to be related to this test.”

Global TIC Match Pro goes further.

It asks:

Which laboratories actually match your requirement, what evidence supports that match, what remains uncertain, and who should you contact first?

The workflow is:

Requirement Understanding → Expert Guidance → Qualified Matching → Evidence Verification → Ranking → Next-Step Recommendation

What Global TIC Match Pro Does

1. Clarifies What Your Customer Is Actually Asking For

In TIC and compliance work, similar words can mean very different things.

A customer may ask for a:

“Certificate”

But what they actually require could be:

• Qualification Test Report
• ISO/IEC 17025 Accredited Test Report
• Scheme Certification
• OEM Approval
• Pre-compliance Test
• Interoperability Test
• Voluntary Certificate
• Customer-specific DVP&R

Global TIC Match Pro first helps determine:

What is the actual requirement? Is it regulatory? Is it a formal certification scheme? Or is it an OEM/customer qualification requirement?

This can prevent you from selecting the wrong laboratory, ordering the wrong test program, or discovering too late that the scope was misunderstood.

2. Matches Laboratories Against the Actual Requirement

The system evaluates candidates based on factors such as:

• Product
• Test requirement
• Standard
• Certification scheme
• Target country / market
• Accreditation requirement
• Physical facility
• OEM / customer requirement

The objective is not simply to find a company that says:

“We can do this.”

It attempts to distinguish and verify:

• Legal Entity
• Physical Facility / Execution Site
• Relevant Capability
• Applicable Standard / Scheme
• Accreditation / Recognition
• Official Evidence
• Evidence Gap

Every Recommendation Tells You Why

Global TIC Match Pro does not simply return a list of laboratory names.

Research-qualified candidates are classified according to the strength of the available evidence.

✓ Direct Match

Strong first-party or authoritative evidence supports the facility and the requested capability.

~ Strong / Related Candidate

The laboratory appears highly relevant, but part of the facility, scope, accreditation, or scheme evidence still requires confirmation.

△ Not Confirmed

The organization may be worth investigating, but the current public evidence is not strong enough to present it as a confirmed match.

For each candidate, the result may explain:

• Why it was ranked
• Its role in your testing workflow
• What capability has been confirmed
• What remains uncertain
• What evidence is still missing
• What would upgrade the candidate to a stronger match
• What you should ask next

Organization ≠ Facility

This distinction matters.

A major TIC company may operate dozens or hundreds of laboratories worldwide.

But:

“Our company offers this service”

does not automatically mean:

“This specific laboratory can perform your test.”

Global TIC Match Pro therefore attempts to separate:

• Corporate / Brand
• Legal Entity
• Contact Office
• Accredited Site
• Actual Execution Site

This reduces one of the most common sources of false-positive laboratory recommendations.

Capability ≠ Accredited Scope

A laboratory may be technically capable of performing a test without that exact method being included in its current ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation scope.

Global TIC Match Pro attempts to distinguish:

Capability Confirmed

from:

Accredited Scope Confirmed

When the evidence supports capability but not the exact accredited scope, the result should say so clearly rather than treating the two as equivalent.

Scheme Recognition ≠ General Testing Capability

Some requirements cannot be satisfied simply because a laboratory owns the right equipment.

Examples may include:

• OCPP Certification
• CharIN Conformance
• USB-IF
• Wi-Fi Alliance
• Bluetooth SIG
• IECEx
• Other certification schemes with designated or recognized laboratories

For these cases, the critical question may be:

Is this laboratory recognized by the scheme owner for the required service?

Global TIC Match Pro therefore attempts to distinguish among:

• Development Testing
• Pre-compliance Testing
• Third-party Testing
• Accredited Testing
• Scheme-recognized Testing
• Formal Certification Routes

Traceable Evidence, Not Just AI Answers

Important recommendations should, wherever possible, include sources you can inspect yourself.

Examples include:

• Official laboratory service pages
• Physical facility pages
• Accreditation scopes
• Scheme-owner laboratory directories
• National accreditation bodies
• Standards organizations
• Certification program pages
• Official scope PDFs
• Government or regulatory sources

You should not have to trust an AI simply because it sounds confident.

You should be able to follow the evidence.

Search Broadly. Speak Narrowly.

This is one of the core principles behind Global TIC Match Pro:

Search broadly, but only claim what the evidence supports.

If something cannot be confirmed, the system should say:

Not confirmed.

It should not fill the result list with famous TIC companies simply to make the answer look complete.

Sometimes the correct result may be:

0 Direct Matches found.

That is still a valid research outcome.

Because in TIC decisions:

An unsupported confident answer can be more dangerous than no answer at all.

It Also Tells You What to Ask Next

Finding a laboratory is only the beginning.

A significant amount of time is lost because important questions are not asked before quotation or sample submission.

Depending on the case, Global TIC Match Pro may recommend confirming:

• Standard Revision
• Test Sequence
• Severity Level
• Product Configuration
• Voltage / Current Range
• Sample Quantity
• In-house vs. Subcontracted Testing
• Actual Execution Site
• Accreditation Scope
• Scheme Recognition
• Report Type
• Certificate Type
• Lead Time
• Retest Policy
• OEM / Customer Acceptance

The result can therefore move directly toward:

Lab Inquiry → RFQ → Scope Confirmation → Test Plan

You Do Not Need to Write a Perfect Technical Specification

Ask naturally.

For example:

We have a high-voltage automotive connector.
Our customer suddenly asked whether we have an LV 214 certificate.
A competitor says: “Qualified according to LV 214 PG17, USCAR-2 and USCAR-37.”
What does this actually mean? Do we need it, and which laboratories in Asia should we contact?

Or:

We have a DC EV charger.
Our existing laboratory can handle IEC 61851 and EMC, but they are unsure about OCPP 2.0.1 and ISO 15118 Plug & Charge.
What should we do next, and which laboratories in Asia are worth contacting?

Or simply:

Our customer requires a very unusual corrosion test.
We already asked several major laboratories and none of them can do it.
Can you find other laboratories in Asia or globally that may be worth contacting?

Who Is It For?

Global TIC Match Pro is particularly useful for:

• TIC / Testing / Certification professionals
• Product Compliance teams
• Regulatory Affairs professionals
• R&D / Engineering teams
• QA / Reliability Engineers
• Automotive / EV teams
• Battery and electronics manufacturers
• Connector and charging-equipment manufacturers
• Market Access specialists
• Certification consultants
• Professionals who need to identify testing resources globally

If your question is simply:

“Which laboratories are near me?”

Google may already be enough.

But when:

Your usual laboratories do not know where the test can be done

or:

You searched the web but still cannot tell who can actually perform the work

that is where Global TIC Match Pro becomes most useful.

What You May Receive in a Pro Result

Depending on the question, the output may include:

• Executive Diagnosis
• Requirement Interpretation
• Research Summary
• Qualified Candidate Ranking
• Workflow Role
• Legal Entity
• Physical Facility / Execution Site
• Relevant Capability
• Standard / Scheme
• Accreditation Status
• Recognition Status
• Evidence Level

• Main Gap / Uncertainty
• Missing Evidence
• Upgrade Condition
• Recommended Next Action
• Cross-Candidate Recommendation
• Customer / Laboratory Inquiry Suggestions

The Pro edition provides the complete set of research-qualified candidates identified during that research run rather than limiting the output to only the first few results.

Pro vs. Lite

Both editions use the same core methodology:

Same Brain. Same Research Standard. Same Ranking Logic. Different Access.

Lite

Designed for users who want to experience the matching capability first.

Lite still performs the full requirement analysis and live-web research process, but fully reveals only:

The Top 2 research-qualified candidates

If additional qualified candidates are found, Lite may show that additional results exist, while their laboratory names, facilities, detailed evidence, and recommendations remain available in Pro.

Pro

Designed for users who need the complete result set for actual work such as:

• Laboratory comparison
• RFQ preparation
• Second-source identification
• Cross-border laboratory selection
• Test planning
• Complex or unusual TIC requirements

Pro removes the candidate-coverage limitation.

Why Doesn't It Always Give You 10 Laboratories?

Because more results do not necessarily mean better results.

One requirement may produce:

8 credible Direct / Strong candidates.

Another may produce:

And sometimes:

0 Direct Matches.

Global TIC Match Pro does not intentionally inflate candidate counts simply to make an answer appear more complete.

The objective is:

Identify the options that currently have enough evidence to justify your time and attention.

Internet Connection Required

Global TIC Match Pro performs live web research for:

• Laboratory discovery
• Official evidence verification
• Facility verification
• Accreditation / recognition checks
• Current public information

It therefore requires an AI environment with:

Internet / Web Search / Browsing capability

A device being connected to the internet is not sufficient if the AI environment itself cannot perform web research.

Important Notice

Laboratory capabilities, accreditation scopes, scheme recognition, standards editions, regulatory requirements, and public web information can change.

Before:

• Placing an order
• Signing a contract
• Shipping samples
• Making a customer commitment
• Claiming certification or compliance

you should confirm the latest requirements with the relevant:

• Laboratory
• Accreditation Body
• Scheme Owner
• OEM / Customer
• Regulatory Authority

Global TIC Match Pro is not intended to replace:

• Formal legal advice
• Regulatory authorities
• Scheme owners
• Formal laboratory scope review
• Commercial quotations
• OEM final approval

Its purpose is to help you solve the difficult front half of the problem:

Understand the requirement, identify laboratories worth contacting, evaluate the evidence, and know what to ask next.

In One Sentence

Not more laboratories.

Better laboratories to ask.

Global TIC Match Pro

Tell me your product, test, certification, or market-access requirement.

The AI expert will help clarify the problem, match evidence-backed laboratory candidates, and show you the official sources and practical next steps.
