Maintenance budgets are cut on radiographic weld inspection in good years and paid for in bad ones. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about this part of engineering and maintenance work under scrutiny. Applied research in engineering and maintenance work consistently shows that early structure around this aspect of engineering and maintenance work reduces downstream rework. Progress on radiographic weld inspection is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of the wider engineering and maintenance work agenda is examined, not just described. Participants leave with a method for the practice within engineering and maintenance work, not a set of opinions about it. It is written for people who have to make radiographic weld inspection work with the resources they already have. The course ends by identifying what the participant will stop doing to make this aspect of engineering and maintenance work sustainable.
