What are the four inspection phases of MAF?

• A. Phase 1- Initiate; Phase 2- In work; Phase 3- Out of work; Phase 4- Sign off
• B. Phase 1- Start; Phase 2- In progress; Phase 3- Inactive; Phase 4- Complete
• C. Phase 1- Initiate; Phase 2- Pending; Phase 3- In work; Phase 4- Sign off
• D. Phase 1- Begin; Phase 2- In work; Phase 3- Out of work; Phase 4- Sign off

Answer: (D)

The sequence shows how an item moves through an inspection lifecycle: you start by marking the inspection as begun, you’re then actively working on it, you place it Out of work when it’s not available for use, and finally you Sign off to finalize and release the item. The phrase Begin sets the proper starting point for the workflow, followed by In work to indicate active inspection, then Out of work to reflect the item’s non-availability during processing, and ending with Sign off to confirm completion and authorization. Other options mix up the standard terms (for example, using Initiate or Pending) and the final stage is not consistently expressed as Sign off, which is the recognized closing action in this process.
