## Properties - Meeting Date: Unknown - Meeting Type: Call - Note Type: Summary - Attendees: Shawn Remick, Casey Cavanaugh, Scott Warner ## 1. Meeting Summary I met with Shawn and Casey to review risk exposure around the repair equipment, particularly the calibrator, and to align on several open building-closure and asset transition topics. The main takeaway on the calibrator is that the highest-risk component is the glass calibration sheet, not the frame or electronics. The aluminum structure and electronics appear replaceable within weeks, but recreating the glass would be the more difficult recovery path and could push total replacement and interruption costs into roughly the $100,000 range, with an estimated 2 to 3 month recovery period. Based on that discussion, I agreed with Shawn's recommendation that we should reduce risk operationally by shipping the backup glass separately rather than relying primarily on insurance. We also discussed the broader building-closure workstream and the need for clearer ownership and coordination. Casey raised a valid concern that there is not a single accountable owner coordinating all closure-related activities. I noted that there is still confusion around ownership of individual workstreams, so I added ownership columns to the master tracker to clarify responsibility across teams. We aligned that this tracker should become the primary working document for weekly reviews, since we currently have too many fragmented sources of truth. On the asset disposition side, we discussed the need to communicate our internal decision not to allow immediate onsite sale of IT-related assets. I committed to speak with Philip and frame this as a controls and compliance issue rather than anything personal. We also touched on an offer that had been made for shop assets at an obviously undervalued price, and the team agreed that any response needs to be grounded in asset IDs, purchase price, and net book value. Finally, we identified a practical execution risk for the move on the 13th. Because of building access constraints, equipment and furniture may need to be moved out with pallet jacks rather than a forklift inside the building. Shawn rightly flagged that we need to confirm labor support so Greg is not implicitly expected to handle all physical move activity himself. We need a more detailed plan for staffing, controls, and onsite support for that date. ## 2. Attendee List - Scott Warner - Shawn Remick - Casey Cavanaugh ## 3. Action Items - [Scott] Contact Philip to communicate our plan not to allow immediate onsite sale of IT assets and explain the controls/compliance rationale. - [Scott] Update the master closure tracker with proposed Shapr and TTS owners for each workstream. - [Scott] Use the tracker as the primary document for weekly closure/status meetings. - [Scott and Shawn] Meet separately to work through open closure and ownership items in more detail. - [Casey] Schedule one consolidated meeting with Greg later this week to review the calibrator risk, asset topics, and broader closure coordination. - [Casey] Continue reconciling the digital tour deck with the asset list and verify completeness with Greg. - [Casey] Discuss legal escalation items with Amity. - [Casey] Gather more input from Amity on project management oversight and coordination risks related to the facility closure. - [Casey] Continue refining the closure/action tracker and adding names to open items. - [Shawn] Follow up with Greg on calibrator risk and backup shipping approach if needed. - [Shawn/Greg discussion needed] Confirm resource availability for the move on the 13th, including labor needed to move items out of the building. - [Team] Split the go-to-market planning item into distinct pre-1/1 and post-1/1 workstreams, with channel-specific treatment for ecommerce and dealer transition as needed. - [Casey] Complete the AI training contact list based on discussions with leaders. ## 4. Relevant Timelines - Later this week - Casey to schedule a consolidated meeting with Greg. - Today - Scott to contact Philip if possible; Casey to speak with Amity regarding legal escalation and facility coordination concerns. - Tomorrow or after Philip's return window - Follow up with Philip if he is difficult to reach while in Europe. - The 13th - Move day; confirm labor, onsite support, forklift/pallet jack plan, and control process before then. - Next couple of weeks - Team to improve coordination and regain tighter control over the facility closure workstream. - November - Dealer-related inventory transition may need to begin earlier if business activity is expected to start then. - 1/1 - Go-to-market planning needs to be separated into pre-1/1 and post-1/1 phases. - 2027 - Longer-range channel planning remains part of the broader go-to-market workstream. ## 5. Additional Notes - The calibrator risk assessment was more nuanced than a simple insurance question. The most effective mitigation appears to be physical risk separation, specifically shipping the backup glass independently from the main equipment shipment. - If the full repair setup were lost in transit, the business could still operate, but repairs would likely need to be routed elsewhere temporarily, including potentially Germany, which would create operational disruption. - Spare parts remain a secondary concern, but the working assumption is that headquarters could ramp or reallocate supply if needed. This should be validated with Greg. - The master tracker is already proving useful because it consolidates open items that were previously scattered across multiple meetings and note sets. - Casey's concern about lack of a single closure owner is directionally correct. While activity is moving, ownership and next-step accountability are still not consistently clear. - The low asset purchase offer for shop equipment appears materially below value. Any response should be supported by asset detail and financial data rather than handled informally. - There is still an open need to define who from our side will be physically present during the move for operational oversight and financial control.
