associated with traditional AIAs including a design

SUMMARY
From April the individual CP will disappear
Many AIAs have included in-service inspection in theirscope of activities informally in the past. Now they are
required to demonstrate their capabilities for these
activities by assessment
PER enhances the status of AIAs significantly and there is
an expectation of professionalism by the regulatory
authorities
AIA-IS will take on the legal responsibility for inspectionsso they should be extremely careful about their
relationship with contracting CPs
