Hi Everyone,

 

Below are a few updates on my to-do list, with regards to the NIEM Training Event.  Please review and feel free to forward any questions and/or further comments.   Kind regards, Jane

 

1.)    Action Item:   Cross-Reference IPAWS 2.0 List Provided by Tom F. – against the OASIS Member List

After reviewing the list provided by Tom – the following OASIS members were confirmed:

NOAA**

Google**

CellCast

Mitre

FEMA under DHS*

Alcatel-Lucent**

NIH**

AtHoc

Desktop Alert

TeleCommunications Systems

DHS

Canadian Association for Public Alerting and Notification (CAPAN)

Collaborative Fusion*

Safe Environment

Booz Allen Hamilton

Previstar

Solace Systems

 

Most are listed as original status – those marked with an * indicates approved – those with ** indicate submitted for approval.  I’m sure Tom F. can provide more details on what the term “original” means here.

 

2.)    Action Item:   Continue to Follow up with NIEM

Unfortunately, we still don’t have any news from the folks at NIEM.

 

3.)    Action Item:   Continue to Research Out Options Directly with the Hotel

I’m currently working with hotel staff to secure a meeting room for us on Wednesday, 24 August.   The hotel does not have any space available on Tuesday.  They sent along pricing for internet connectivity, food/beverage, and setup.  I’m waiting to hear what type of room rental will be involved.  Once I have that pricing, a proposed budget will be sent to the Emergency Member Section StC for review and consideration.  Once we hear back from them -- we’ll have a really good idea of any per company cost associated with participation.
