Support. The GGP Working Group is beginning
its work with Task 2: “identify experts with
expertise to aid in tasks 3, 4, and 5” (see
pages 3-5 of the Initiation Request). The GGP
Initiation Request envisioned that the Working
Group has the flexibility/discretion to rely
on the advice of Subject Matter Experts (SMEs)
in specific fields to aid in deliberations for
certain tasks pertaining to Task 3, 4, and 5
as detailed in the Initiation Request. But the
Initiation Request also listed related
experience and skills GGP Working Group
members should have, suggesting a possible
overlap between GGP members and SMEs. Thus, it
may be that your organization has already
appointed members to the GGP Working Group
