Progress in Improving Project Management at the Department of Energy; 2001 Assessment
Washington DC: National Academy Press 2001. Presumed First Edition/First Printing. Trade paperback. very good. xi 1 128 pages. Wraps. Figures. References. Appendices. In 1997 Congress in the conference report H.R. 105-271 to the FY1998 Energy and Water Development Appropriation Bill directed the National Research Council to carry out a series of assessments of project management at the Department of Energy DOE. This report the 2001 Assessment is the first in that series. It presents an examination of DOE's progress in improving program management and offers recommendations regarding project management methodology and project oversight. Prepared under the auspices of the Committee for Oversight and Assessment of U.S. Department of Energy Project Management Board on Infrastructure and the Constructed Environments Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences National Research Council. The 105th Congressional Committee of Conference on Energy and Water Development in its appropriation conference report directed the U.S. Department of Energy DOE to undertake an independent review and assessment of its project management structure and processes for identifying managing designing and constructing facilities. The concern was the quality of the technical scopes cost estimates schedules and supporting data regarding these construction projects as well as the validity of the proposed costs scopes and schedules. The study was to also include a review of large operating projects such as environmental projects which may or may not involve much construction but should clearly be managed with the same principles and guidelines. The overall objective was achieve departmental processes that controlled the projects' cost and schedule as well as reduce cost growth and schedule slippages. While the original congressional direction was for the US Army Corps of Engineers to perform the review the final version allowed the DOE to ask the National Research Council NRC to conduct such a study. In 1998 prior to delivering the later general study in 1999 NRC completed a short time frame study using a generic approach to assess DOE's FY98 budget request which did not attempt to address the broader issues of systems acquisition and project delivery within DOE raised by the conference report.

Progress in Improving Project Management at the Department of Energy: 2001 Assessment
Washington DC: National Academy Press 2001. Presumed First Edition First printing. Trade paperback. good. xi 1128 pages. Wraps. Illustrations. References. Appendices. Acronyms and Abbreviations. Staple holes in front cover distribution memo laid in. Prepared under the auspices of the Committee for Oversight and Assessment of U.S. Department of Energy Project Management Board on Infrastructure and the Constructed Environments Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences National Research Council. The Department of Energy DOE is engaged in numerous multimillion- and even multibillion-dollar projects that are one of a kind or first of a kind and require cutting-edge technology. The projects represent the diverse nature of DOE's missions which encompass energy systems nuclear weapons stewardship environmental restoration and basic research. Few other government or private organizations are challenged by projects of a similar magnitude diversity and complexity. To complete these complex projects on schedule on budget and in scope the DOE needs highly developed project management capabilities. This report is an assessment of the status of project management in the Department of Energy as of mid-2001 and the progress DOE has made in this area since the National Research Council NRC report Improving Project Management in the Department of Energy Phase II report was published in June 1999 NRC 1999. The Phase II report findings and recommendations are reproduced as Appendix C. The findings presented in this report reiterate and expand on those given in the committee's January 2001 interim letter report Improved Project Management in the Department of Energy NRC 2001 reproduced here as Appendix D. The Phase II report estimated that DOE projects costed taxpayers 50 percent more than comparable projects would cost if performed by the private sector or other government agencies in large part because DOE did not use industry-standard best practices for project management. The Phase II report recommended inter alia that DOE develop policies procedures models tools techniques and standards; train staff in their use; and require their use on DOE projects. It recommended further that DOE should develop and deploy a comprehensive project management system with clear definition of the specific roles and responsibilities of all parties associated with a project. As noted in the interim letter report the department has taken a number of positive steps since the Phase II report. On June 25 1999 subsequent to the release of that report the deputy secretary as the DOE chief operating officer issued a memorandum announcing a project management reform initiative. This memorandum directed a number of actions to be taken to improve project management capability. These included the formation of the Office of Engineering and Construction Management OECM in the office of the chief financial officer CFO and the formation and strengthening of project management support offices PMSOs in the three major program secretarial offices PSOs. On January 3 2000 the deputy secretary issued an interim instruction to serve as policy guidance on critical decisions by acquisition executives AEs and the Energy Systems Acquisition Advisory Board ESAAB and on the conduct of corporate-level performance reviews. On June 10 2000 DOE issued Policy P413.1 which addresses project management accountability the establishment of project management organizations project management tools and training of personnel. DOE Order O413.3 was issued October 13 2000 to implement the DOE policy document. O413.3 covered department policies on project management; provision for project engineering and design PED funding for preconstruction planning; reestablishment of the ESAABs; and other matters related to the management and oversight of DOE projects. Finally the Program and Project Management PPM manual and a companion volume Project Management Practices PMP were released in draft form in October 2000. The body of this report addresses certain specific areas that the committee believes needed greater definition and follow-up since the Phase II report. Not all the findings and recommendations in the Phase II report are repeated in the body of this report although the committee continues to endorse them so this report should be used in conjunction with the Phase II report.

Scientific Opportunities with a Rare-Isotope Facility in the United States
Washington DC: The National Academies Press 2007. Presumed first edition/first printing. Trade paperback. Good. Typed letter signed by the two Co-Chairs John Ahearne and Stuart Freedman laid in. Rear cover creased. xii 140 8 p. Occasional footnotes. Illustrations some with cover. Glossary. Author continues: "Rare-Isotope Science Assessment Committee." Over ten years ago U.S. nuclear scientists proposed construction of a new rare isotope accelerator in the United States which would enable experiments to elucidate the important questions in nuclear physics. To help assess this proposal DOE and NSF asked the NRC to define the science agenda for a next-generation U.S. Facility for Rare Isotope Beams FRIB. As the study began DOE announced a substantial reduction in the scope of this facility and put off its initial operation date by several years. The study focused on an evaluation of the science that could be accomplished on a facility reduced in scope. This report provides a discussion of the key science drivers for a FRIB an assessment of existing domestic and international rare isotope beams an assessment of the current U.S. position about the FRIB and a set of findings and conclusions about the scientific and policy context for such a facility. From Wikipedia: "The Facility for Rare Isotopes Beams FRIB is a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science DOE-SC national user facility supporting the mission of the Office of Nuclear Physics. FRIB will produce large quantities of a wide variety of rare isotopes by breaking stable nuclei into rare isotopes enabling scientists to make discoveries about the properties of rare isotopes in order to better understand the physics of nuclei nuclear astrophysics fundamental interactions and applications for society. The project is funded by DOE-SC Michigan State University and the State of Michigan and is being designed and established by MSU with construction expected to begin on campus in 2013. It will adjoin and upon commencement of operations subsume the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory NSCL at Michigan State University. Currently final design of the FRIB conventional facilities the tunnel and support buildings is complete and ready for construction to begin upon approval from the U.S. Department of Energy. Pre-construction site preparation is complete and pilings for the earth-retention system have been placed. Research and development activities have been successfully completed with much of the R&D work accomplished in collaboration with national laboratories. Final design of the technical systems accelerator and experimental equipment is underway and anticipated to be complete in 2014. Project completion is expected in 2021 managing to early completion in 2019. Across the state of Michigan business and political leaders have called for continued funding of FRIB in support of scientific discovery innovation and economic impact. Articles and editorials are available on the FRIB project web site. FRIB is expected to provide research opportunities for an international community of approximately 1000 university and laboratory scientists postdoctoral associates and graduate students. FRIB will provide researchers with the technical capabilities to study the properties of rare isotopes and to put this knowledge to use in various applications including in materials science nuclear medicine and the fundamental understanding of nuclear material important to nuclear weapons stockpile stewardship. More than 20 working groups specializing in experimental equipment and scientific topics have been organized through the FRIB Users Organization. Based on the analyses and recommendations over the last decade DOE-SC determined that the establishment of a Facility for Rare Isotope Beams FRIB is a high priority for the future of U.S. nuclear science research. This determination and supporting rationale are reflected in the DOE/ National Science Foundation Nuclear Science Advisory Committee s 2007 Long Range Plan and the 2003 DOE report Facilities for the Future of Science: A Twenty-Year Outlook. DOE-SC announced the selection of Michigan State University to design and establish FRIB on December 11 2008 after a rigorous merit review. The National Academies Press paperback
