Penalties sit at the end of the chain. The controls that matter most are the ones that prove what was placed on the market and why.
Article 74 sets the penalty baseline, but market-surveillance and evidence speed decide how painful enforcement becomes.

ESPR penalties are set nationally, but the regulation already tells you what Member States must be able to impose: effective, proportionate, and dissuasive penalties that include at least fines and time-limited exclusion from public procurement procedures. In practice, exposure is driven by whether the company can prove the applicable rule, the published information, the supporting records, and the corrective actions taken after a non-compliance signal.
The exact amount of fines is national, but the structure of the penalty regime is not unconstrained.
Article 74 gives you the baseline enforcement logic.

Most cases start with observable non-compliance: wrong or missing information, weak conformity evidence, inconsistent identifiers, or failure to support an authority inquiry.
Once a delegated act applies, the question is rarely theoretical. Authorities test the product version on the market.
You do not need to predict every national penalty number to reduce risk. Focus on the failure modes that make non-compliance obvious and hard to defend.
Those are usually data and control failures, not just legal interpretation errors.
The same controls that support smooth implementation also reduce enforcement risk.
