MATERIAL INSPECTIONS
A Material Inspection facilitates the approval of received parts and/or materials, enhancing traceability and ensuring compliance with required standards regarding their design and manufacture. When an Item is flagged “Material Inspection Required” at the Part Description level, it will appear in the Material Inspections List as “Pending Inspection” upon receipt. Parts cannot be installed on an aircraft via TMI Entry until the Material Inspection is completed and processed.
