Define the inspection service
Explain whether you capture thermal images, interpret them or provide recommendations. Tie each reported anomaly to the site, date and source image. Describe the limits of the observation and avoid turning an image finding into an unsupported performance guarantee.
Separate aircraft and report concerns
Ask about aircraft damage, site liability and allegations of an incorrect report as distinct interests. An errors-and-omissions label does not establish cover for every missed anomaly. Compare the actual service, exclusions and timing terms with the proposal.
List the thermal equipment
Identify the drone, camera, payload and controller, with owners and values. Ask which items must be scheduled. A camera is not automatically included merely because it flies on the insured aircraft. Explain hired or customer-owned equipment.
Map analysts and report users
Describe outside analysis, software, review and approval roles. Identify whether a customer will send the report to a lender or another party. Review reliance and confidentiality terms before assuming the original contract addresses later use.
Prepare the BWI review
Bring the scope, sample output, intended users, aircraft and equipment schedule, contracts and claims history. Keep reports and corrections traceable. Ask which offered terms address the actual flight and professional services.
Keep a clear project record
If an outside analyst changes a finding, keep the original image, revised analysis and final report connected. Record which version the customer receives. An unmarked replacement can make the actual service and chronology harder to explain.
Discuss your drone operation with BWI and confirm the actual offered terms before relying on them.
