Note 1: E means the form is completed with data for a single engineer, T means the form has data for the<br />

team, and E/T means the form is used for both engineer and team data.<br />

Note 2: The X means that these forms should be completed in that phase and be available in the team's<br />

project notebook the next week.<br />

Note 3: The ? means that these forms may or may not be completed in these phases.<br />

Special Issues or Problems<br />

If the team leaders have any special issues or concerns, they should cover them during their reports. If<br />

many team leaders have the same issue, however, you may wish to hold a more general discussion of the<br />

issue after all the team-leader reports.<br />

Topics for the Next Weekly Meetin<br />

At this point, use Table 7.1 to identify the forms you wish to review in the next weekly meeting. Also,<br />

tell the team leaders what you intend to ask about on each form so that they can be prepared. The key is<br />

for the team leaders to know that you will look at the team's data and that you will ask detailed questions<br />

about the data. If they are prepared, the reviews will take very little time. The items to review for each<br />

form are described in more detail in Chapter 9.<br />

Summary of Action Items<br />

At the close of the meeting, summarize the action items from the meeting. Do not rehash the issues; just<br />

summarize what the action item is, who will handle it, and when. Then have the meeting recorder note<br />

these items for the meeting report. Add any other significant items and provide copies of the report to all<br />

the attendees. The report should be brief and cover only the outstanding items, important decisions, and<br />

any key facts or data. Also, if there are more than a few action items, consider using the ITL form and an<br />

ITL tracking system to track them.<br />
