Greetings,
New Bid Package Format Eric Brahm MEC Scheduling Chair When the December Bids come out you will notice that they will look slightly different than what we've had in the past. Please don't panic. The changes are minor and will probably be seen as improvements once you become accustomed to them. The reason for the changes is that the Planning Department will be using a new computer program from now on which generates lines more automatically. This program doesn't create the actual sequences, but is used to place them into the bid lines during the line construction phase. The program should eventually help allow the Planners to make the lines more quickly thus giving them some additional time. Hopefully it will also translate into superior line What you'll notice different. 1 The Summary will appear on the left side instead of the right side in the past. 2 There will be an additional field after each Sequence in the line, indicating total Block Time 3 There will be a Slash between Back to Back Sequences. 4 There will be a calendar next to each Sequence in the back section which indicates graphically when the Sequence operates during the month. 5 In the Summary on the left, the C/O will indicate the Carry Over hours brought into the new month. Below is an example of what the lines will look like with the summary on the left. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BLK.
