5 — TOP 3 PRIORITIES TODAY

#1	Prep Stanley QBR + Bohrer support (both Monday) Two-front Monday: QBR at 12pm and Bohrer meeting Stanley Legal simultaneously. Confirm Bohrer has the NX AvboltEco investment summary (3+ years). Align with Arif on NCR#11228, Amendment 8, and consumables compensation. Make the Kingston labor call today — Arif has been waiting 24 days.
#2	Draft tariff impact analysis for Yves — Section 232 live tomorrow HTS 8479.90.95 drops to 15% effective Apr 6. Yves wants supplier allocation impact. Even a rough 1-pager now is better than nothing Monday morning. Fasteners (Howmet, Stanley, Meishan) + slew drives/dampers/mounts. Will also come up in both QBRs this week.
#3	Confirm China trip with Prashant + begin supplier prep CEO directive was Apr 2. Flight is Apr 11. Get Prashant’s explicit go-ahead today. If confirmed, start per-supplier discussion guides this week — especially Yihua (GBA close-out), KMI (warranty), Meishan (ADD). These cannot be done from a plane.
