SUMMARY OF CHANGES This document is substantially revised and must be completely reviewed. Significant revisions include: providing clarification and guidance to the Self Assessment Communicator (SAC); establishing procedures to identify and implement “benchmark” processes; changing the Management Inspection (MI) grading scale from a 5-tier system to a 3-tier system; the 5-tier grading scale for the Unit Effectiveness Inspection (UEI) is also under review; most of the wing referenced items and inspection requirements were consolidated into Chapter 5; clarifying Commander Inspection Report (CCIR) routing procedures for ANG equities; and incorporating guidance from the new CJCSI 3263.05B into Chapter 6. Also, Table 5.1 (“By-Law” Wing IG Inspection Requirements), Table 5.2 (Air Force Installation Mission Assurance Exercise Requirements), Attachment 2 (List of Authorized Inspections), and Attachment 3 (Air Force Inspection Requirements) will reside on the SAF/IGI Portal site at https://www.my.af.mil/gcss- af/USAF/ep/globalTab.do?channelPageId=s6925EC1351F40FB5E044080020E329A9 to better accommodate the rapidly changing requirements in a timely manner. Additionally, duties and responsibilities of AFIA were better defined; more accurate guidance for IG force development is included; several terms were added to Attachment 1 to provide clarification regarding their use throughout this Instruction; and Attachment 4 was expanded to include a better description of first level inspection items pertinent to the 4 Major Graded Areas (MGA). This document will be revised again later this calendar year, as the Air Force Inspection System continuously improves to achieve full capability.
