The AISI would like to identify manufacturers and services industries that require assistance to comply with marine industry specific standards and accreditations (including but not limited to implementation, surveillance or inspection, or auditing of systems and processes related to marine certifications; or engineering support in the form or design evaluation or component testing which might be required for marine certification). Programme beneficiaries may also request assistance with other support relating to the certification process (e.g. engineering support). COMPONENTS FROM THE MARINE DESIGNATED LIST: The Programme supports the accreditation and certification required for the 1) manufacturing of components and 2) marine-related services, however, preference will be given to applications supporting the manufacturing of marine-related components or products. The Programme is not prescriptive of the types of components or services to be supported.
