So there's clear proof that at least three companies in the UK were

That pretty much matches my recollection also.
The earliest use I can find of the "AT Attachment" terminology is the
X3T9 project proposal from late 1990 which eventually led to the
formation of the X3T10 group:

As I previously posted, these minutes refer one of two CAM Committee
meeting in May or Jun 1989 where it was announced that the "ATA
document" was nearly complete:

I have found two independent sources that indicate a first draft of the
document appeared in Mar 1989.
