In a scenario where remote learning wasn't needed, being overprepared would have ideally resulted in more thorough planning and simulations, enhancing the system's capacity management.
- Vanessa Hunt of IBM states that aligning with DOE on extensive pre-event planning would have been ideal.
- Planning well in advance would have involved simulations and strategic advising.
- Better advance planning could have helped manage system load more effectively, potentially averting negative outcomes of overpreparation.

And in a scenario where it had been more definitive and you'd made accommodations, and in fact, there was no need for remote learning.

Would there have been any impact at all?
1:50:23
Like, had you been overprepared?

And they're not have been running again.

I think DOE and IBM agree on this.
1:50:29
I think ideally, we would have been planning way before the day before I think we would have been a part of the simulations, a part of the planning, and we would have been able to better advise the DOE on potentially staggering times what we could do to ensure that the system could handle the load.

Yeah.

Thank you.

I think the I think what we're all we're all in agreement, we don't wanna go back.
1:50:48
We wanna see better pack this is moving forward, but we're always going to emphasize transparency and better communication.
1:50:58
And it was encouraging to hear that they're taking responsibility, but that really sounds like what is at the the crux of kind of how everything rolled out.

Thank you.
