🛠️ Chief Engineer
Sent the Mechanical email to Bill and Brian
Mech leads please draft up responses to anything you want to respond to
I have created NextGem PVDR, VDR, Battery, BPS, and Array Technical Documents in Sharepoint. As soon as we are able to submit these forms, we should do so.
I want Mechanical to submit PVDR as soon as possible after PDR, so as you make decisions I think it would be best to slowly fill in PVDR
I’ve been noticing lately that workday attendance isn’t the greatest. A pretty sizable portion of people are missing every workday which concerns me, especially when as we start to approach major deadlines. What do y’all think we can do to help fix this problem?
