Affected Group’s Requirements:
1. Travel Group must receive Plan three weeks prior to the “Travel Due Date” as set by the students & Parents.
2. Travel Group must be formally notified of any changes to the Travel Plan after receiving the initial plan.
3. Travel Group must have all the travel codes upon initial receipt of the Travel Plan.
Current Situation:

· There is no process in place for notifying the travel group when changes are made to the Plan.
Possible Cost Related to Defect:
· Overtime dollars paid to vendor employees if travel agency plans incorrect.
