Considerations: 1. Nearly half of OMB is changing with four (4) members eligible for a second term. 2. Nearly half of OMB represents the industry perspective. 3. Nearly one-fourth of the OMB represents government perspective. 4. Nearly one-third of the OMB represents international (outside of US) regions.

5. Need to consider chair for Committee on Safety. 6. Need to consider representation from Academia.

7. Need to consider representation from Microbiology/Molecular Biology. 8. Need to confirm 2019-2020 joint OMB - Editorial Board membership. 9. Vice Chair position will need to be filled, but only by a member with at least one year of service on OMB. 10. Announce the process has begun. 11. Remember when considering candidates that being an OMB member is not an entry level AOAC volunteer position. 12. Are there any other OMB members affiliated with an academic/research institution that should be considered?

Microbial & Biological Contaminants

Adding Wallace: No changes to broad perspectives; but Wallace does represent industry in animal nutrition; however, industry is represented by more than half of OMB. Wallace has been active in the microbiology community and is knowledgeable on AOAC method programs and international norms for microbiology method development and validation. Perspectives are the same as charted for the 2018-2019 OMB on p2.

To AOAC OMB,

I’m writing to enthusiastically endorse Patrick Bird’s nomination to the Official Methods Board.

As a Regulatory Manager in 3M Food Safety, I have known and worked with Pat for about 8 years, in his previous position as Laboratory Supervisor with Q Laboratories. As an AOAC Board Member and Immediate Past President of AOAC, I have observed Pat’s active leadership and participation in AOAC activities. And as a technical expert member of the US ISO Technical Advisory Group, I have observed Pat’s active participation in the development of ISO standards as an expert himself. For these reasons, I feel I am very qualified to speak to his level of expertise, leadership skills and dedication to understanding, review and evaluation of methods and acceptance of method criteria. Pat was the key contact for 3M Food Safety regarding the method validation for each of our (then, newly launched) Molecular Detection System assays, and for many of our 3M Petrifilm Rapid Plate methods. He has always been professional and thorough in his collaboration during the method validation process - from initial contact and through his active support and participation in the Expert Review Panel presentations. We (3M) have worked with others, but if there was a vote regarding with whom we would want to work – Pat would win, no question. He is 100% committed to fully completing the job and providing top notch service. disbanded the end of 2018. He was a member of the Presidential task Force, representing contract laboratories, to make recommendations for the necessary improvements needed in the RI process. He has been a key member of the Technical Program Council since 2013, working to ensure we have a quality program that well represents a global technical point of view for all of our members. And at the most recent Mid-year meeting, Pat chaired and moderated the discussion of the ISPAM working group - Quantitative Microbiology Methods Acceptance Criteria. We only had a couple of hours for discussion and this often means not enough time, but Pat successfully led the group to a conclusion (final recommendation for consideration), and the working group all left, feeling very satisfied (and very pleasantly surprised!) at the progress that was made! As a member of AOAC, Pat has served in several leadership roles. He was a member of the AOAC Research Institute Board of Directors from 2015 – until the RI BOD was

Pat knows first-hand how important it is for international acceptance and recognition of methods. Not only has he committed himself towards this goal through leadership within AOAC, but he was also invited by FDA to join the US Technical Advisory Group and be a key technical expert in several Working Groups within the ISO Technical Committee (TC) 34/ Subcommittee (SC) 9 – Food/Microbiology. Through his participation in these working groups, he has contributed to the development of several ISO standards for microbiology – included directing a study that was key to verify that the drafted standard ISO 16140-5 would “work” as expected, before publication (the end of this year). The data generated from this study, will be included within the standard as an Informative Appendix. In addition, Pat is active in another international organization to further support global method efforts – IAFP. He has been involved in IAFP both within the US and in Europe. He is an active member of the IAFP Applied Laboratory Methods Professional Development Group (PDG) and actively working within the sub working group on method validation and verification to create and provide on-going webinars on these topics to continue to expand this knowledge internationally. With all of Pat’s experience and expertise, his voice is well heard, and his opinions are well respected. His focus is international, and not stuck in US-centric thinking. For these and all the above stated reasons, I believe the AOAC OMB would be well served by Pat’s inclusion on the Official Methods Board.

Sincerely,

DeAnn L. Benesh | Regulatory Affairs Manager 3M Food Safety Department 3M Center, 260-6B-01 | St. Paul, MN 55144-1000 | United States Office: +1 651-736-3594 | Mobile: +1 651-592-4092 dbenesh1@mmm.com
