3 To obtain a quotation for initial CEC Certification, the Vendor uses a version of the cecQAF that only shows a few worksheets:
4
5 * Coversheet
6 * Components
7 * Products
8 * Sites
9 * Certificates
10
11 (% class="box infomessage" %)
12 (((
13 At the end of the CEC Certification process, the Vendor receives a version of the cecQAF that shows more worksheets. If a Vendor who already has CEC certified products requests a renewal or change, then the Vendor shall use the cecQAF from the previous CEC Certification to request a quotation, and not a new one.

20 * List the Components of the Products

26 1. [[Vendor downloads the CEC Query and Assessment ("cecQAF") Form>>doc:]].
27 1. [[Vendor defines the contact and invoicing information, and the scope of the assessment>>https://cecocert.com/xwiki/bin/view/CEC%20Home/Environmental%20Claim%20Registration/C0230%20-%20CEC%20Assessment%20Order%20Form%20-%20Guidance/C0232%20-%20Vendor%20downloads%20the%20form%2C%20defines%20the%20contact%20and%20invoicing%20information%2C%20and%20the%20scope/WebHome]], and sends the form to [[contact@cecocert.com>>mailto:contact@cecocert.com]].
28 1. CEC Administration creates the offer using the form and the information provided in the form by the vendor and submits the form to the vendor for signature.
29 1. Vendor signs on the order page of the CEC Assessment Order Form and submits the signed form back to [[contact@cecocert.com>>mailto:contact@cecocert.com]]. This constitutes the purchase order.
30 1. CEC Administration countersigns the CEC Assessment and returns a copy signed by both parties back to the vendor. This constitutes the order confirmation.
