They’re deep in the data within XDMoD and may have some additional questions for Allocation/Metrics.
A total of 59 proposals have been submitted to the upcoming AARC allocations review meeting
Previous quarters: June (56); March (32).
Exploring potential mechanisms to accommodate long-running NSF investments in the allocations in a more consistent and formal manner
Big thanks to our collaborator Shawn Strande for interfacing with stakeholders on fee
MATCH Shelley Knuth

CONECT Tim Boerner
Ops leadership team meeting in Rosemont Aug 21-23 for a planning meeting. Note that Ops will not have representation at the Aug 22 EC meeting.
Ops would like to propose adding 2 additional RP reps (elected by the RP Forum) to the EAB to ensure broader representation from RPs in providing program-wide feedback.
We have an opportunity to contract with a consultant to provide a half day (~4-5 hour) DEI workshop. This consultant delivered this workshop to the ICICLE project (~100 participants), and it was well-received. Objectives including open sharing about issues and walking away with a specific action plan. Cost is $10-15K depending on a few factors. Recommendation is to do this in-person adjacent to one of our in-person meetings with the option for team members not attending in-person to participate remotely. Are folks interested in pursuing this? Possibly sharing cost across awards? Thoughts?
