Figure 2 illustrates a possible role structure when a PCI has multiple PCIFs. The SAO has the primary authority and responsibility for the PCI. Reporting to the SAO are the OIMO and the DAA. A PCI Facility Manager is responsible for managing operations at each PCI facility and reports to the OIMO. The dotted lines leading to the PO and the Assessor indicate their independence from the day to day operations of the PCI.
