ARBITRATION SCHEME
AUDIT SCHEME

The FIA Arbitration Scheme has been created to provide technical advice and support where there is a dispute relating to the work or services provided by a Member.

A decision to use the Arbitration Scheme requires prior agreement by both parties involved that they will accept the final arbitration. The scheme is managed by the Arbitration Committee and supported, where necessary, by two independent arbiters and chaired by the Technical Director of the FIA.


Those who do not fully specify their purchase may be taking very high risks if a dispute arises later as they may have no recourse open to them. However, even where specification has, to all intents and purposes, been correctly stipulated, there will be occasions when controversy arises.

In contrast to the FIA's Arbitration Service, the FIA Audit Scheme is a technical rather than contractual service. The FIA Audit Scheme is able to provide independent verification of specification compliance for those products and services supplied by FIA members to other FIA members as well as external organizations.


The assessment of compliance will be undertaken by independent personnel under FIA instruction and using agreed UK, United States, European or international standards, specifications and/or codes of practice.

The Audit Scheme is managed by the Audit Committee which is chaired by the FIA’s Technical Director.
