Government Operations committee  Mr. Jenkins, go ahead.

Government Operations committee  Good morning, gentlemen. There are all kinds of standards. There are standards for individual consumers, for governments, for products. There are standards for services. I guess my question is for all of you. Is there anything unique that the CGSB does that other people don't
