4. LNPA WORKSHOP
PA contract inhibits timely changes to process improvements and is inflexible relative to the change order process
The PA contract is based on the INC Guidelines/Forms in effect on Sept. 9, 2000.
For example, the ability to add a “remarks” field on PAS mechanized forms is hampered by the change order process
INC and PA continue to improve industry processes
Some PAS upgrades require additional funding, such as adding a “remarks” field
Frustration with implementing current change orders in PAS because state trial processes were more flexible

5. CO/NXX WORKSHOP
INC discussed at length the input received from state regulators on Issue Removal of Switch ID. Although the issue remains in initial closure, INC has concluded that the Switch ID field should be removed because:
FCC rules mandate assignments at the rate center level, not the switch level;
Switch ID is an artifact from the days when assignments were made at the switch level and is no longer used in the assignment of a Central Office code;
SPs may move numbers between switches within a rate center to balance resources, therefore rendering the original Switch ID moot; and
State regulators have other ways to obtain Switch ID information, e.g., TRA, CCMI, NECA FCC Tariff No. 4 and other vendor products.

6. CO/NXX WORKSHOP
NANC LNPA Working Group provided further clarification relative to PIMs 14 & 15 which the INC is working within Issue Modifications to Procedures for Code Holders/LERG Assignee Exit
INC approved interim procedures for returning non-pooled codes with active or pending TNs (detailed in the NANPA report)
