3. Subcommittee Proposal for Service Provider Management/Oversight Set up a standing PTCS subcommittee with a more formal commitment from and description of the members – Members: David Hales, Mark Jerome, Mark Johnson, Andres Morrison, Gary Curtis, Brady Peeks/Dave Brook, Bob Davis, Rod Street, Ken Eklund, Adam Hadley, representatives from other providers (Proctor, CSG, etc) Subcommittee to review new Service Provider applications Subcommittee to perform a high level overview of existing Service Providers, issuing a letter to providers asking: – Whether they still (want to) perform services, – # jobs/technicians/trainings performed – Description of technician follow-up – Description of QC (form review) process – Description of QA (site inspection) process Subcommittee will review results of this inquiry and follow up where there are discrepancies with the spec Subcommittee to provide ongoing follow-up and oversight of PTCS Service Providers Other Notes: Someone needs to lead the subcommittee effort. Who’s in charge? Adam said it looks like a lot of work and that he cannot do it, Bob expressed interest in the more technical aspects, Brady/Dave will take a first look at it and if it's too much to handle, develop a scope of work to allow a hand-off. Funding? The group did not want to add more cost to the PTCS program for fear of non-cost- effectiveness. The subcommittee believes it can manage the work on a volunteer basis in an efficient, low-cost manner.

4. Decision Accept subcommittee’s recommendation?
