Phased rollout 4-12 weeks typical.</p>\n<!-- atlantis-quality-upgraded-v1 -->\n\n<h2>Related Codes, Qualification and Records</h2>\n<p>Recommended practices and guides inform an inspection programme; binding requirements come from the in-service codes (API 510, API 570, API 653), the construction codes and the regulations that apply to the asset. NDE personnel are qualified under the employer&apos;s written practice (commonly ASNT SNT-TC-1A, ANSI/ASNT CP-189 or ISO 9712), and NDE procedures are approved by the employer&apos;s NDT Level III. Acceptance of indications follows the governing code; damage beyond its rules may be referred for an engineering fitness-for-service assessment (API 579-1/ASME FFS-1), which Atlantis NDT does not perform. Keep procedure revisions, calibration records and personnel certifications traceable; <a href=\"/erp\">Atlantis ERP</a> can hold these records.</p>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>\n<h3>Q1: How does the Free Consultation actually work?</h3>\n<p><strong>A:</strong> Free 30-minute call with Atlantis NDT founder (ASNT NDT Level III in UT, RT, MT, PT and VT). Output: tailored scoping doc, recommended phased rollout, integration map, tailored quote. No commitment.</p>\n<h3>Q2: How long is recertification cycle + what does it cover?</h3>\n<p>Record the expiry date and renewal requirements for each actual credential. Use the issuing body&#x2019;s current guidance or the applicable employer written practice; do not infer the renewal route from a generic cross-scheme calendar.</p>\n<h3>Q3: How does Atlantis NDT compare on the 8 evaluation dimensions?</h3>\n<p>Identify the governing references, examination methods and required personnel approvals in the enquiry. Confirm the proposed scope, delivery arrangements and any integration work in the proposal.</p>\n<h3>Q4: What is the typical implementation timeline?</h3>\n<p><strong>A:</strong> 4-20 weeks depending on team size + scope. SMB: 4 weeks. Mid-size: 8-12 weeks. Enterprise multi-region: 12-20 weeks. Atlantis NDT delivers phased rollout with clear milestone gates.</p>\n<h3>Q5: How does Atlantis integrate with our existing stack?</h3>\n<p><strong>A:</strong> Atlantis ERP has an open REST API, so it connects to SAP, Maximo, NetSuite or any other system that accepts API connections; each integration is scoped with you during implementation. Free integration scoping consultation.</p>\n<h2>Related Atlantis NDT Resources</h2>\n<ul><li><a href=\"/asnt-certification\">ASNT certification</a> &#xB7; <a href=\"/api-510-certification\">API 510</a> &#xB7; <a href=\"/api-570-certification\">API 570</a> &#xB7; <a href=\"/api-653-certification\">API 653</a></li><li><a href=\"/consulting/ndt-consulting-level-iii\">ASNT Level III consulting</a></li><li><a href=\"/erp\">Atlantis NDT ERP</a> &#xB7; <a href=\"/digital-twins\">Atlantis Digital Twin platform</a> &#xB7; <a href=\"/best-ndt-reporting-software-2026\">NDT reporting software</a> &#xB7; <a href=\"/marine-offshore-ndt-services\">Marine &amp; offshore NDT</a></li><li><a href=\"/lms\">Atlantis NDT LMS</a> &#xB7; <a href=\"/ai-ndt-defect-detection\">Atlantis AI for NDT</a> &#xB7; <a href=\"/ccs-inspection\">CCS inspection</a> &#xB7; <a href=\"/atlantis-academy\">Atlantis NDT Academy</a> &#xB7; <a href=\"/atlantis-partner-program\">Atlantis Partner Program</a></li></ul>\n<p>Atlantis NDT &#x2014; Anoop Rayavarapu (ASNT NDT Level III).
