Building on the Fly by Design
Building on the Fly by Design- Meeting 2
Building on the Fly by Design aims to develop a more effective and efficient process for imagining requirements, determining potential solutions, and developing operationally feasible plans for rapidly building capacity to address needs during worst-case scenario events. The project includes two meetings: the first, to convene federal partners to validate a process as well as agree on a “worst-case” scenario and plan for a second larger meeting that will include federal partners, industry, civilian healthcare, and other key stakeholders. The goal of the second meeting is to test the process, identify operational considerations, and create proactive, practical solutions that reduce reliance on ad hoc responses during emergencies.
