    Before you begin

    Please review the documents listed in the OD Device Certification Process and gather the required documents to complete the Device Lockdown (DLD). These will be reviewed and locked down before testing.

    More on Device Lockdown

    The DLD review will ensure your device is ready for testing at an authorized independent test lab (ITL). It will also cover documentation submissions, test campaigns and post-certification procedures.

    Testing and certification

    During the testing period, any open items from your DLD session will be finalized.

    Verizon will upload the custom Test Campaign (TECC) based on your submission. The ITL you contract with will execute the tests according to your TECC.

    Verizon Approved Third Party labs can be found in the OD Device Certification Process document.

    A final report from the ITL will be sent to Verizon for final confirmation that the device functionality meets Verizon’s access standards.

    Completion of the Certification Agreement and submission and approval of Certificate of Insurance is required prior to granting of Verizon Open Development certification.
