Hi Ben,
IMHO, your team needs a basic understanding of the finance and accounting issues. Legal should have a bit more of a developed (and probably current) understanding of how to address the issues. Between Development and Legal, we should be able to get docs about 90% there. We then take the almost compliant docs to Accting/Finance for fine tuning. A key action item is getting a presentation set up where there is a good download of information from Acct/Finance to the Development group. We had one yesterday for Legal, and it was helpful. I want to sit in when your troops get the presentation, if at all possible, because I can help translate on both sides, I believe. I also want to make sure that Development and Legal are on the same page. Fire drill avoidance is a key objective. Look forward to discussing in detail.

I need your help to make this work with respect to the legal group, and would like your suggestions. I'll call you to discuss.

From: Ben F Jacoby 05/10/2001 06:51 PM Sent by: Ben Jacoby To: Chris Booth, Raimund Grube, Jeffrey Keenan, Steve Krimsky, Greg Krause, Rick Whitaker, Fred Mitro, Rusty Stevens, Ron Tapscott, Matt Gimble cc: W David Duran Subject: Interface with Accounting and Global Finance Guys: As you all know, our group is in the middle of a very significant amount of development and equipment book management activity, This hard work by all of you has allowed us to achieve very impressive income results thus far this year, and has set the stage for continued success. It has also placed significant demands on internal resources that are integral to our success, in particular those resources in Global Finance, Accounting, and Legal. In order to ensure a proper prioritization of work flow, and that project specific objectives and time lines are communicated, I need each of you to come to me with all new agreements prior to seeking input from Accounting and Global Finance. I will interface with these two groups and establish priorities for their review. We will continue to refine how we interface with these groups, and as such, I'd appreciate any suggestions you would have. I plan to have a staff meeting next week, and we can discuss it at that time. Thanks, Ben
