Hey Tim, thanks for checking in!
Yep, everything's okay here - since Sara is unable to define their SOW
until the microsites content audit is completed, and we're blocked on
getting the access required to complete the audit, our new Director of Web
Product Phil has quickly performed the audit herself and we are finalizing
the new fully defined U7 SOW before getting back to Sara.
This should help shorten our timeline and remove ambiguity with U7's
proposal that we still have yet to receive. We are estimating to get back
to Sara with this by today or tomorrow.
Looking forward to connecting with you tomorrow.
Talk soon,
Kahl
