202106 -
202107 - He feels the SDS doc log on the Internet, explained on 990513,
202108 - ref SDS 11 2990, improves Communication Metrics and accomplishes his
202109 - request on 990505, ref SDS 3 3150, for simple, direct access to
202110 - particular documents.
202111 -
202112 - We spent about 20 minutes reviewing the Doc Log format and links,

202116 - helpful.  He clicked on the alternate cross-referenced reports and

202129 - of responsiveness to USACE requests, and usefulness for accomplishing

202132 -
202133 - He will ask about DE's progress reviewing the District's report on

202148 - with DE, about whether we are coming back on board.  This is the first
202149 - time he has made such an inquiry, and so may indicate potential
202150 - support.

230602 - Com Metrics Adds Value to Memos that Justifies Standard Formatting
230603 -
230604 - We reviewed Jim Lovo's concern about converting email into memo
230605 - formats, set out in the record on 990510. ref SDS 9 8064
230606 -
230607 - Tom had not reviewed this in the copy of letter to Jim, which Tom
230608 - received this morning. ref DIP 1 2821
230609 -
230610 - We read through analysis on 990510, showing alignment of Jim's point
230611 - with earlier review by District Counsel. ref SDS 9 7942
230612 -
230613 - Tom indicated concurrance with this analysis.
230614 -
230615 - His experience over the past 4 years has shown Communication Metrics
230616 - provides accurate, timely work product that is helpful for decision
230617 - support because it provides alignment with controlling factors in
230618 - other memos, contracts, policy, calls and meetings.  He feels that
230619 - since email is clearly identified in the record, using common formats
230620 - to facilitate "intelligent" processing for alignement and follow up,
230621 - is justified.
