Two non-US governments are participating in the Industry Requirements (IR)
effort addressing the migration of (G)ETS from circuit switched networks
to Core IP networks. It is anticipated that this IR effort will feed into
standards- identifying new needs. Some of these needs will feed into
ATIS/ITU, but others will feed into IETF.
In addition, the vendors and carriers are somewhat segmented. Some of them
are primarily active in ATIS/ITU. Others are primarily active in 3GPP or
3GPP2. There is no one SDO that can be the home to ALL the ETS work.

ATIS is a US National standards group, not an international one and thus
does not cover the ieprep, as a whole, "customer base". The groups
requiring ieprep functionality include the NCS (your CUSTOMER) but also
US
DoD and NATO. I've also been informed (by Fred Baker and others) that
several governments have talked with them about needing such
capabilities.

1) Should this work be done within the IETF?
Not all the work in this space is appropriate for the IETF (e.g.,
architecture dependent). The appropriate work (protocol
extension/definition) should be done in the IETF. If a protocol
extension or new capability is required, the protocol/capability work
MUST be done in the IETF.
WRT, the problem definition and requirements: the initial analysis MAY
be done in another SDO (eg,. ATIS), and be brought to the IETF when a
gap/need has been identified. A service like ETS is supported and
deployed in certain architecture/deployment scenarios, whereby the
expertise is not in the IETF.
ETS Service Definition requirements are appropriate for ATIS.
Side note: my focus is on the ETS service. All of the major players
(vendors, service providers, contractors, and most importantly
CUSTOMER), attend and participate in the ATIS work.
2) If it is done within the IETF, where?
I will save my opinion for a later time.
