In late 1999, the LNPA WG established a "problem identification and management process" (PIM) for LNP issues. The LNPA WG is not responsible for resolving all LNP problems. The LNPA WG does an initial evaluation of each LNP problem submitted, then either develops a resolution for the issue or refers the issue to the appropriate forum for resolution. The status of each LNP issue submitted is reported to the NANC on a regular basis.
The LNPA WG has developed issue submittal guidelines, an issue submittal form, process flows, and a tracking mechanism. Issues should be submitted to the LNPA WG, using the issue submittal form, at least two weeks before the LNPA WG meeting at which LNP issue's discussion is desired. 2009-08-03 PIM Conference Call Notes.pdf
