Although there exist private agreements among some NRTLs (such as UL and
CSA) for the sharing of files and reports, typically they exist(ed)
outside of the NRTL program. In my experience (as a Manufacturer's Agent),
I have arranged for UL and CSA, under the terms of their long-existant
MOUs, to share data. BUT,this must be arranged at the onset of the test
program, not afterwards.
I'd be very surprised if any NRTL (or other Agencies) would accept the
Listings (or reports & test data) carte blanche, of another. Two rays of
hope -- the CB Scheme which provides for the official acceptance of test
data, and also the CB-FCS (Full Certification Scheme) which is now
beginning to take hold.
This is not to say that some NRTL will do exactly as you seek - and, I
guess only they can respond on their own behalf (and practices).
Good Luck. Let us know if you find a ready solution to your query.
Regards, Art Michael
