A guided discussion of what needs to be in the introduction (Chapter 1), based on the content of the other chapters.  Chapters 2 and 4 are both well along in the development of the content, the objective in this discussion is to validate the approach that the initial team created.  Does this match with the  understanding of the requirements by the vendor community?  Are there missing pieces that need to be added?
