6. Reporting Process
PMs/PEOs input and approve DAES reports in the OSD DAMIR web tool
PMO and PEG shall ensure there are no critical errors in the report by running data checks – on the submission status page
SAF/AQXC will release the report to OSD via DAMIR – will work with AQXRA, PEMs and PEGs to resolve any remaining issues
This icon combination = critical error – will not let report get released to OSD and MUST be resolved.

7. Briefing the DAES Meeting
Once formally selected for briefing the DAES Meeting:
SAF/AQXC will inform PEMs and PEGs of the issues/concerns identified in OSD analysis and rationale for selection
Briefing templates for both PM and PEO briefings will be provided
PEM/PM should check with the OIPT if they desire a prebrief
OIPT prebrief should occur PRIOR to prebrief with SAF/AQ
SAF/AQXC will schedule prebrief with SAF/AQ - both PM and PEO expected to present (in person or via phone)

Actions are captured in an OSD web tool, SAF/AQX tracks actions to closure and reports status to SAF/AQ bi-weekly
