Recognizing the dynamic business environment in which the parties work and compete for business, these committees will, as the need arises, attempt to negotiate new provisions to address emerging issues of concern to the Company and the Union.

By centering Partnership on DBTs, we also expect to eliminate parallel, duplicative structures in the organiza- tion. There will be fewer meetings, and more will be accomplished because all of the stakeholders are at the table from the beginning.

Developing and implementing DBTs will incur costs, particularly for readiness training, described in more detail in our Recommendation 4, as well as release time and backfill.

There is an equally motivating sense of crisis in the health care mar- ket – make significant performance improvement now, or lose market share. At the same time, we are well positioned to implement DBTs at this juncture: we have a shared vision of a high performing Partnership, we are committed to engaging employees, and we have the resources in place to support the development of DBTs. We will have to overcome some barriers, including com- pet...
