Allocations Stephen Deems
Met with representatives from SGX3 today (Maytal Dahan and Claire Stirn) and mentioned they want to reach out to Support and Operations team. They may be interested in software, so we mentioned JP. They could benefit from Support tools such as Affinity Groups and the news/events functions.
The offer user experience consulting on gateways and portals - should we do that as an ACCESS wide/cross site improvement suggestions?
should we send web and branding their direction?
would be a good opportunity to get them involved in
NSF is paying for it
Dina in ACO is tracking web site focus group - should this be involved? - Shawn will connect Dina to Dave
