1. 1 Instructions / Guidance This template is a reporting template for product updates or enhancements being promoted into operations. The OSPO SPSD Division Chief or his representative will use this information to decide whether to promote a product enhancement into operations. These slides do not have to be briefed to the SPSRB. Routine modifications to an existing product that are handled through the NESDIS OSPO change management process do not have to be briefed to the SPSRB, unless directed by OSPO management or requested by the SPSRB. The template is a guide and may require tailoring. However, adherence to the briefing outline is recommended because it ensures the OSPO is presented the information needed to make decisions. Guidance is contained in the notes page. You can access the notes page by selecting “View” and “Notes Page” from the main menu.
