The RESF operations lead joins department heads so the RESF can ask CIQ for help without knowing who will provide it

Situation

Peter had the RESF operations lead invited to the Thursday department heads meeting (Eng Sync 10/27) and stated at the 10/29 meeting that he wants the RESF to be aggressive in asking CIQ for help without knowing who on the CIQ side provides it; department heads find people to solve the problem of the day.

Reasoning

Gives the RESF a request forum for CIQ resources rather than a reporting change, and strengthens the RESF relationship.

Additional Context

Confirmed by Peter. Execution of the 10/23 decision to meet RESF resourcing needs through department heads rather than a reporting change.

Observed Evidence

be aggressive about asking for things, and people will give you people that are yours to command for as long as you need them.
