Nuclear

An 80-year license, answered in an afternoon.

ISI program owners, NDE Level IIIs, and outage managers hold every exam on a Class 1 boundary, keeping each result, procedure revision, and examiner qualification on one record built to 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, across fleets under NRC and IAEA regimes.

Where it runs

Every exam keeps its procedure revision, its examiner qualification, and its Section XI basis on one Appendix B record.

Where it carries weight

Every exam proves not just that you inspected, but how.

The record that carries weight is the one you can trace, the procedure revision on hand, the qualification current, the relief basis attached instead of lost to the file room.

    NDE that carries its basis

    intelliNDT records UT, PAUT, and RT against the qualified procedure per ASME Section XI Appendix VIII, and trends wall thinning to remaining life so a flaw disposition rests on data, not memory.

    Outage scope off the critical path

    intelliPROJECTS carries the Section XI exam scope of a refueling outage through readiness, execution, and gates, so a deferred exam surfaces with its 10 CFR 50.55a relief basis instead of vanishing into the schedule.

  2. 022 / 2

    Fire barriers proven, not assumed

    intelliFIRE tracks penetration seals, fire wraps, and barrier inspections against 10 CFR 50.48 and NFPA 805 commitments, each with photo, location, and sign-off.

    Examiners current before the scan

    intelliCREW checks certifications to ASNT CP-189 or SNT-TC-1A and Appendix VIII performance demonstrations before assignment, so every exam runs on a current qualification.

One Appendix B record

From containment entry to the resident inspector's question, the pedigree holds.

One exam, end to end

From containment entry to the resident inspector's question.

  1. 01

    Captured on a dose budget

    An examiner enters containment with a fixed work window and no signal. intelliINSPECT runs the exam offline, stamps every reading with time, location, and examiner, and syncs at the hatch. No transcription, no second entry, no repeat dose.

  2. 02

    The verdict, with its math

    The readings land against IWB-3500 acceptance standards in intelliNDT. An indication over the limit opens a flaw evaluation, and the accept, repair, or replace call is logged with its Section XI basis in intelliINTEGRITY.

  3. 03

    The question, answered in minutes

    When the resident inspector asks for the pedigree, intelliCOMPLY exports the exam, procedure revision, examiner certification, and disposition as one Appendix B record. No file room, no reconstruction.

Answers

Nuclear questions

01Does intelliSPEC support ASME Section XI in-service inspection programs?

Yes. Class 1, 2, and 3 exam scope, examination categories, and 10-year interval coverage are held per component, with each exam surfaced before it comes due and every result stored against its Section XI basis.

02How does intelliSPEC handle Appendix VIII qualified ultrasonic examination?

UT and PAUT results are recorded against the qualified procedure and technique per ASME Section XI Appendix VIII, and intelliCREW holds each examiner's performance demonstration so the qualification chain is part of the record, not a separate binder.

03Can intelliSPEC manage ISI scope during a refueling outage?

Yes. intelliPROJECTS carries the outage's Section XI exam scope through readiness gates and execution, flags exams at risk of deferral, and keeps the 10 CFR 50.55a relief basis attached to anything that moves.

04How do nuclear plants track flow-accelerated corrosion?

FAC susceptible piping is trended in intelliNDT with UT thickness data, wear rates, and remaining life per line, supporting programs run to EPRI NSAC-202L guidance.

05Does intelliSPEC support NFPA 805 and Appendix R fire protection inspections?

Yes. intelliFIRE tracks fire barrier, penetration seal, and fireproofing inspections against 10 CFR 50.48 commitments, whether the plant licenses under NFPA 805 or Appendix R, with each finding routed to closeout.

06What software do nuclear plants use for 10 CFR 50 Appendix B inspection records?

Plants need every exam, result, and corrective action captured with user, timestamp, signature, and procedure revision. intelliSPEC produces that traceability as a working record, so an NQA-1 audit is an export rather than a reconstruction.

07Does intelliSPEC work for international fleets under IAEA safety standards?

Yes. The same inspection record runs across every unit, online or offline, so an operator aligned to IAEA safety standards alongside a national regulator holds one consistent standard and one audit trail per component, in any country.
