Description
The overall aim of this Procurement/project is to ensure Asset Inspectors (AI's) working for, or on behalf of the EA, can competently, consistently and safely undertake visual inspections of EA assets. To demonstrate their ability to inspect assets, AIs must pass the T98 visual asset accreditation course. It is the Contractor’s role to assess if an AI has achieved the required level of knowledge and competency to pass and therefore become an accredited AI. Accreditation lasts up to 5 years when a refresher occurs in the form of a reaccreditation.
