| LIFE IN SOLERA | OCTOBER 2023 | 5 Communications & Technology Advisory Committee (CTAC) e Communications & Technology Advisory Committee (CTAC) has made recommendations that have resulted in several valuable improvements to communications in Solera. We are only part of the "formula" in this regard. e CTAC, like most other advisory committees, only come up with the ideas and present them to the Board and basically that's the end of their involvement. If these recommendations are approved by the Board, it is up to the Board and/or General Manager (GM) to make sure those ideas are thoroughly developed and, if appropriate, implemented. Generally, our Keystone Pacific onsite staff do most of the hard work!
