Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "FAA Order 8100.8" in English language version.
This guidance document provides a wide variety of guidance on how to manage FAA designees and will be phased in incrementally. FAA Notice 8000.372 directs all AIR manufacturing personnel who oversee designees to stop using Order 8100.8 and begin using Order 8000.95 on a schedule. The schedule reflects the implementation of the Designee Management System (DMS) in those offices.
Under that schedule, all MIDOs with designee management responsibilities should have transitioned to Order 8000.95 during the summer (of 2014). So Order 8000.95 will have supplanted 8100.8 for [Manufacturing Inspection District Offices] MIDOs (but not necessarily for ACOs and FSDOs). This means that DMIRs and DAR-Fs have transitioned. But DERs should still be under 8100.8 until they are formally transitioned (at which time they will fall under the instructions of 8000.95). [emphasis added]
