• Discussion on handling disputes

o EC will act as arbitrator if any disputes arise between universities, project teams,

etc.

o General consensus from the members, and a process may need to be

determined.

• Future meetings

o The EC will participate in planning future agendas for the annual and biannual

meetings as well as determine the location of said meetings.

o The first meeting to consider is Year 1 Meeting 4 in June 2017, which will take

place in Washington, DC.

o The next meeting to consider is Year 2 Meeting 1 in fall of 2017.

• Discussion on proposals, white papers, etc.

o The EC with vet all White Papers submitted to COE SOAR. The committee will

come to a consensus to move the paper forward to the FAA through a general

voting process.

o The question of guiding criteria was discussed to help both the committee and

researchers.

o April will begin to draft criteria with feedback from Caleb, to bring to the EC.

• Projects and how to approach the FAA were discussed.

o The EC agreed that moving together as a team to brainstorm new projects and

bring them to the FAA and sponsors was appropriate, but the FAA must not be

inundated.

o Relationships between industry members, university members, and FAA should

be leveraged to ensure project ideas get to the correct people to move forward.



o One idea is to brainstorm topics based on focus areas before approaching the

FAA.

o If a White Paper is in hand, the EC can make direct contact with the appropriate

people.

o The Industry Advisory Board should be consulted about issues concerning the

industry directly for new projects- this should be discussed at Meeting 3.

• White Papers will be submitted through the Scholarly Commons platform.

o Currently Stephanie Fussell is notified of submissions. She will create a

SharePoint folder for White Paper upload. The EC will have access to this folder

and can ‘check out,’ read, and comment on submissions.

• It was decided that these meetings will be held monthly for the time being. They will be

held shortly before the COE TTHP Monthly Meetings, which will occur on the 4th

Thursday of each month.



02/02/17 - COE TTHP BI-MONTHLY PLANNING TELECON

Attendees:

Stephanie (ERAU), Caleb (WSU), April (OU), Karen and Angelia (FAA)

Topics:

1. Reporting

– WMU and WSU still outstanding on technical reports - Auburn has a “red” response to technical report - Actions: Caleb will work with Dr. Tomblin on WSU report. WMU received email from

Stephanie on report deadline Monday, January 30. Dr. Friend will follow-up if no report in system by Wednesday, February 8. Use ERAU report to help with WMU report.

2. Data Management Plan –Each institution will need a data management plan.

– Action: Caleb/Fred to share next steps with COE via email.

3. No Cost Extensions

– Action: Caleb available for questions of core institutions during no cost extension package preparation and submission (e.g. OU and OSU due this week).

4. Meetings 3 and 4 – discussion on agendas, catering/per diem, presentations, outreach,

industry involvement, university involvement, expectations for PIs.

– Actions: Angelia will send examples of presentation board and will clarify guidelines for purchase of promotional materials. April will work with industry partners to secure donations if needed for promotional materials. Karen will send map of space to group to plan for expo set up.

5. Communication and Marketing Plan – Discussion on communication plan, website,

brochures, video.

– Actions: Set up planning meeting to finalize video – Stephanie and April use institution networks to attract talent for new direction.

6. Project 22 – Project team completed draft of survey and sent to Karen for review.



– Actions: Karen identify a time to have a teleconference with team to discuss survey, edits and dissemination/data collection plan.

7. New Projects – Use EC to vet all new projects prior to submission to FAA.

– Actions: Stephanie to add PM folder and project folder SharePoint.

8. SharePoint – Need Program Management, Executive Committee, and Industrial Advisory

Board folders. Subfolders a needed (e.g. new project proposals, etc.).

– Actions: Stephanie to create.

9. Brand Confusion/SOAR – Follow ASSURE wording on website to provide contractual name

vs. brand name. SOAR and logo can be larger. Use COE TTHP on all award and contractual

documents.

– Actions: Karen available to Stephanie and team to continue working on this issue and clarifying when to use which term.

10. Conflict of Interest – IAB involvement not at 100%. Some companies still feel there is a COI.

This has impacted willingness to document matching contributions.

– Action: Karen/Pat to attend IAB meeting at Meeting 3 to continue to discuss and address concerns.

11. IDIQ Contract Phase – Many industry questions about timing and process. Scalability

needed for institutions to be ready. COE structure is different than typical contract structure.

Core institutions as primes and industry as subcontractors.

– Action: Karen/Pat to attend IAB meeting at Meeting 3 to continue to discuss and address concerns. Share process with group.

12. Union and FAA Approvals – union needs to review all surveys and FAA needs to be made

aware of all site visits.

– Action: Karen to review Site Visit form and will share labor relation/union contacts for surveys. Stephanie and April continue to collect information and coordinate with FAA.



Parking Lot:

1. Roll call needed for all-team, EC and IAB calls to eliminate confusion. 2. Meeting minutes from calls should go in SharePoint for all groups. 3. Need to address Intellectual Property with researchers based on FAA guidelines 4. Project Participant forms are still needed.

training contact vehicle of 2006, now it is the controller training contract.

• NCE: discussion on process, requirements; discussion on closeouts on grants.gov.

Contact Fred Bowen to ensure OMIS is up to date.

• Fred: Review invoice number format for proper formatting so it is automatic. In OMIS

there is now an SF425 management option, which will email it to the FAA for you.

• Fred: When schools aren’t invoicing, the FAA assumes something is wrong and the fiscal

analyses are incorrect. Matching is also affect and must be entered. We will be pulling

and analyzing for each school, not each project at this time. Each school has the full

phase 1, but we want to ensure everyone is moving in positive direction.

• Fred: Cost share is applied in aggregate for the school in question. If a project generates

extra match for one project at a school, it is applied to another project at a school.

• Caleb: No questions on current project submissions to grants.gov. No questions on

DMPs; DMPs are not required for project management grants. Participant forms are

required for homeland security; if OMIS is kept up to date, then this should be

satisfactory and the project participant form can be updated at the project close out, to

include everyone associated with the project.

Caleb: NCEs must submitted 90 days in advance to project end. TMs should be working with PIs

on this. NCEs are on per project (possibly due to where the money is coming from), valid up to a

year.




Angelia, Caleb, Stef, April, Tisha, Dr. Pappas

• Y2M1 – Hotel is intact, campus is fine and no damages. San Juan area is fine and storm

went north. Dr. Pappas has concern over the island’s welfare and wonders if we should

come back at another time after hurricane season.

o WSU backup: New building has been booked as a backup that easily seats 50-60.

Hotels in the area that they have relationships with. Hosting options available.

Same dates (11/7-9).

o Tentative call with ERAU, OU, WSU Fri at 10 am

• Cooperative award document language (email) – need to contact PIs for a lot of these;

should we have an agenda item in November?

o Robert Nast is an ‘outstanding item’

• ATCA - Can Karen participate at ATCA? Have a booth, a COE panel, and David Delaine

participating in the 2:30 YAP panel

• Proposals – make a documented list, have the basecamp and Excel document, look for

the maybes
