Follow - Up

  • Any score which falls below a 90 will require a written response from NARI Members Management detailing how they will address the findings.

    Members with 3 "needs improvement" within any calendar year must provide a written response and may be required to have principles attend the next scheduled NARI Loss Control Committee meeting. Additional "needs improvements" may require the member to obtain additional inspections and/or training services through the captive at the members expense.

    Members who have an "unacceptable" inspection must have principles attend the next scheduled NARI Loss Control Committee meeting where it shall be determined if they shall be required to obtain additional services.
