Schedule / Resources
Issues / Concerns:
• Final report on essential elements of a
System Model – July 2014
• Have some volunteers; need to recruit
more
• Committee meetings in February, April,
June, and August 2014
• Need organizations to volunteer to host
• Finding volunteers to work on unfunded
study efforts is getting much more difficult in
current fiscal environment.
• Continuing Government restrictions on
travel and fees for professional society
activities is creating difficulties in
maintaining perception of value of society
activities to industry participants.
