Inspectors often need to make maintenance recommendations. Corrective Action Inspection Requests (CAIRs) can be used to “keep track” of these repair recommendations.
CAIRs are Created, Defined, Approved, can also be linked to an Event, and marked for WOP, in the same way as Inspection Schedules. Lastly, they must also, just as with Inspection Schedules, be credited in the ECH.
Take Note
The only difference is that CAIR cannot be Recurring. They are once-off Schedules that are specifically created to do a repair.
CAIRs cannot be recurring.Also, for CAIRs it is recommended to select the "GENERAL" Component for the Schedule’s Scope (see Defining Inspection Schedules). Then, for CAIRs you can enter not only the Plan, as is the case for Inspection Schedules, but also the Conditions Found (see below).
It is recommended to select the "GENERAL" Component for a CAIR’s scope. You should also specify the Conditions Found.Since CAIRs are often the result of an Inspection, a button to create CAIRs, is available in the ECH Inspection data and codes section. This way a CAIR can be created when you are busy crediting the Inspection Schedule and the Plan and Conditions Found can also be carried over from the ECH to the CAIR.
Take Note
This functionality is also available in IMS Offline. Thus, you can credit an Inspection and directly create a CAIR on your mobile device, while doing an inspection in the field.
CAIRs can be added from the Inspection data and codes section of the ECH. The CONDITIONS FOUND and REPAIRS PLANNED will be copied to the new CAIR.
