  • As soon as an AWE team takes stewardship of lines, degradation may begin. Then quality of care, handling, storing, etc. affect the life and readiness of liness. As soon as knots or terminals are integrated with line, then a whole new set of concerns come into play for the lines. Line-use history and log notes may become important. Inspection schedules may be designed and followed.
  • Line engineers, line inspectors, line purchasers, line-product receivers, line handlers, line-storage technicians,
  • Commodity lines.   Life-Safety lines.
  • "ANSI, OSHA, NFPA, ASTM, ISO and other professional efforts."
  • Laterial issues:  cost of line failures, line-wear sources,
  • Shared awareness of line conditions  ...
  • CE marking is not a quality standard, but a conformity statement.
