The purpose of this tutorial is to share knowledge and come up with some best practices between participants so that delegates leave the session better equipped and with an informal network of colleagues to tap into for working on the PSMF outside the EU.

Learning Objectives:

• Exploring the current PSMF landscape.
• Sharing of experiences and challenges across the world and discuss practical solutions to simplify work.
• Discuss and understand feedback received on existing PSMFs, sharing of strategies and processes.
• Encourage participants to work towards an approach that ensures compliance, good quality, simplification to deliver what is needed whilst eliminating duplication wherever possible.

 Audience: PV/Industry experts involved in PSMF coordination and/or maintenance.

Level: PV audience; beginners and advanced, trying to better understand the PSMF landscape and requirements around the globe.
