An Engine Shop Inspector reports their Inspection Management is directing Shop Inspectors to perform Final Inspections on Pratt Whitney PW-2000 engines even though the engines are minus the EEC's and Mechanic jobcards are not completed.

Narrative

This report is related to a (Pratt Whitney) PW-2000 engine; Serial Number S/N XXXXX; that was signed-up for a Final Inspection at XA:15pm December 2010. This engine was minus the EEC and had two incomplete mechanic job cards. The Engine Release form was also incomplete. The Engine Shop Operations Manual clearly states that engines will not be signed-up for Final Inspection until this form is completed. Despite this; Day and Swing shift Final Inspectors were directed by Inspection Management to perform the Final Inspection on this incomplete engine.This has happened several times in the eight years that I have been a Final Inspector. The last time was less than three months ago. I believe the Shop Operations Manual is just as binding as an FAR and should be followed at all times. If the Operations Manual is found to be too restrictive than it should be changed; this has not been done. But until it is changed; it should be followed. That is stated in the Operations Manual cover page; the air carrier's Quality Policy; Quality Alert bulletin and the (International Standards Organization) ISO 90000 procedures [Standards for Quality Management]. If the Manual calls for more than we really intend to do; the Manual must be changed before we do less.
