Bureau Veritas (BV) is a large, respected testing company specializing in safety and compliance. From their web site:

Since its foundation in 1828, the Bureau Veritas Group has consistently built recognized expertise, helping clients comply with standards and regulations relating to Quality, Health & Safety, Environment and Social Responsibility.

Anyway, in the chaos left in the wake of the passage of the CPSIA, they have published a CPSIA Resource Page. They link updates on the doings of the CPSC, as well as BV seminars on CPSIA, and of course their testing facilities, which are accredited by the CPSC to handle any testing you may need for compliance. I haven’t worked with them personally, but have spoken with them. They seem capable and helpful, and take a keen interest in the children’s segment. You can find them at the big trade shows, if you’d like to connect.
