  4. Response to the Committee’s Recommendations Project acknowledges importance of comment, BB monitor calibration planned to be used, achievable precision 2008 tech note Workshop held, positive feedback This is being done, but not systematically, so far given our present solution, overall tune footprint shrinks with positive xx Prototype would be too costly, not in budget, vertical cold tests are planned, no vendor decision yet comment is acknowledged & taken into account in the ongoing design considerations Aggressive staffing plan pursued, resources from other labs used (Al Chamber welding, DW, controls) Magnet procurement split into 5 packages, sextupole and quadrupole packages split into 2 similar sub-packages • Achievable precision of BPM offset by BBA Introduce realistic errors into the orbit and optics correction model! • In-depth workshop of the storage ring lattice and tracking results in the near future • Investigate the performance of the Storage Ring lattice at higher positive values of vertical chromaticity, which are generally required to control instabilities! • The Project should plan on building and testing a (500MHz) superconducting cavity prototype, especially if the contract goes to a company that has no experience • Make an effort to decrease R/Q of the passive cavity. • Keep focus on rapid staff-up. Look for resources at other labs. • Give serious consideration to parallel awards and “easy” escape clauses in contracts for magnets, to facilitate a shift of scope from one vendor (who might not be performing satisfactorily) to another

  27. Accelerator Systems Budgeted Costs

  28. Registered AS Cost Changes Note: Contingency is owned by Federal Project Director. Numbers are just used as a measure of cost increase!

  29. Project Cartoon Schedule

  30. Schedule CD4

  31. Cost and Schedule Performance

  32. Assessment Trend since October 2008: Cost variance becoming smaller Schedule Variance becoming negative reaching 5.8M$ at the end of FY09 Reasons: Late hires and Missing MOU Labor 36 FTE ( @ 6.0M$ ) • Labor augmentation plan 36FTE to recover since June, too early to see an effect Should start to see improvement within the next 6 month There is one remaining EVMS issue: Controls has worked on activities scheduled to start in FY10 no earned value, self repairing in FY10 There are real delays: Vacuum Chamber 1.5 M$ due to technical issues and procurement or vendor problems and slow progress with the vacuum facility (recovering now) Slow procurement process with many medium size procurements behind schedule  Additional procurement support added (Liaison Engineer AS, more buyers)

  33. ASD Shortage of Labor Resources Causes:Late Hires, Resource Leveling, MOU contributing less than planned ASD schedule variance at 4/30 associated with this effect is -4M$ [FTE] [FTE] Difference, Accumulated Difference [FTE]

  34. Mitigation of Schedule Variances Goal: Stop Growth of SV within 3 months  recover the schedule within 24months Preliminary Plan in Place to satisfy immediate needs 18FTE, plan to complement by another 18FTE Additional 18 FTE  Slow recovery

  35. Schedule Recovery FTE

  36. Accelerator Systems Division Staffing Budgeted Temporary Labor Planned MOU BNL Hired

  37. FY09 AS Hires • FY 09 Staffing • 11 Controls System Experts • 10 Engineers • 7 Physicists • 11 Technicians and Designers • Present staff 103 • Supported 10 FTE MOU

  38. Organization • 23 new key staff hired • Deputy Division Director assigned: E. Johnson • Project Engineer hired: G. Fries • Organization augmented by task forces (FOF, BC) N

  39. Conclusion • Design of Accelerator Systems approaches conclusion: Magnet, Vacuum Chamber design and prototyping ready for production • Accelerator Systems entered the construction phase, major procurements and production have started: SR Magnets, Vacuum Chambers, Production Facilities • Negative Schedule Variance has built up; is mitigated by adding labor to make up for labor resources not available the time work was scheduled, • Focus in the next months will to award construction contracts for magnets, vacuum chambers, LINAC, booster and support systems • Accelerator systems in good shape, no major technical issues, schedule under control
