Summary Summary -- ORD, DDS$T
Perceptions:
"It appears that OL is like a big hole into which requests are
sent... that OL_lines up requests and handles them in FIFO order."
OL has difficulty in sorting out priorities; no one at a high
level serves as focal point to adjudicate conflicting requests.
If OL does much for ORD but ORD is not informed., such lack of
communication is a measure of poor perception of our svcs.
"Don't worry about perceptions; do something about service."
Overall impression: "OL viewed as extremely courteous and
pro essional (because of 2 logs reps assigned to ORD). Dealing
w/logs central is less efficient/less effective/less responsive
due to requesting component's ignorance and the inefficiencies at
the Logs end."
Specific problems:
Procurement of supplies/equipment only adequate; hamstrung by
GSA schedule/restrictions.
41 Quality of P$PD support good; timeliness bad.
RECD/EBOB svcs improving; works better than previous
arrangement.
How improve:
Essential to show professional courtesies by confirming
project/svc status and prognosis. "Let people know you're working
on their project even if you can't give them a positive response.
Let them know you're not ignoring them."
Determine order of task actions at more senior level;
prioritize based on some other acceptable criteria besides FIFO
and including better understanding of interactive operational
needs. This will require someone who has the authority to
adjuciate conflicting requests.
Additional svcs/support needed:
Vaulting of Rm 404 Ames ASAP.
How communicate better:
EBOB newsletter like HOME's, w/info on parking, a/c, new bldg
progress.
Give new focus to briefings to make more anecdotal; show how
OL works as part of overall Agcy mission.
