See below for the update from PAE. The good news is that they're getting this back to us on a rolling basis, and it looks like we'll have at least some of this stuff in time to produce it by 11/9. The bad news is it does not seem like we'll have all of it by that date. It does seem like we'll have greater clarity by early next week.
I confess, I don't feel like I fully understand all of the steps in this process or why it takes as long as it does, but I'm happy to go back to [Redacted] with additional questions if that would be helpful. I'm also happy to ask that he set up a call with us and PAE if that would be helpful. Please let us know what we can do.

Some of the data is being sent to use today by FedEx. However, there is a ton of stuff still being processed. That stuff is still being imaged. Then it gets marked. Then copied to us. I have spoken to [Redacted] He thinks it is not possible to meet the November 9 date. He thinks the next step might be done on Tuesday, and then a better estimate of completion might be possible.
