In addition, useful collegial exchanges took place between panel members and individual ARL investigators outside of scheduled meetings as ARL staff members sought additional clarification about panel comments or questions and drew on panel members' contacts and sources of information. Each panel's review meeting lasted about 2.5 days, during which time the panel members received a combination of overview briefings by ARL management and technical briefings by ARL staff.

In addition to the insights that they gained from the panel meetings, ARLTAB members received exposure to ARL and its staff at ARLTAB meetings each winter. The 2013 ARLTAB meeting refined elements of the assessment process focused on ARL's core technical competencies, including read-ahead materials, review agendas, and expertise required within the panels.

Collectively, these highlighted examples for each ARL core technical competency area are intended to portray an overall impression of the laboratory while preserving useful mention of suggestions specific to projects and programs that the ARLTAB considered to be of special note within the set of those examined. REPORT CONTENT This chapter discusses the biennial assessment process used by ARLTAB and its five panels.
