PPPL Project Management System Description Rev-01 PPPL Project Management System Page 6 of 111 Introduction The U.S. Department of Energy’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) is a collaborative national center for plasma and fusion science. Its primary mission is to develop the scientific understanding and the key innovations which will lead to an attractive fusion energy source. Associated missions include conducting world-class research along the broad frontier of plasma science and technology, and providing the highest quality of scientific education. PPPL uses standardized and proven project management systems to plan, implement, and measure projects being designed and constructed/fabricated at PPPL or for other DOE fusion organizations. These systems and approaches are described in this Project Management Systems Description (PMSD). Within the PPPL organizational structure, the Deputy Director for Operations has the ultimate responsibility for overall oversight and implementation of the project management systems processes and systems described herein. Direct responsibility for the development and management of the PPPL Project Management System – including oversight of individual project management plans, processes, training, and procedures – has been delegated by the Deputy Director for Operations to the Project Management Officer who will be supervised by the Associate Laboratory Director for Engineering and Infrastructure. For Projects with a Total Project Cost of less than $20 million PPPL shall utilize a graded (tailored) approach which considers a project’s risk, complexity, visibility, cost, safety, security, and schedule to appropriately select the project management systems, processes, and procedures to be applied. For example, major DOE-funded and work for others shall be executed under the specific requirements of DOE Order 413.3B, Program and Project Management for the Acquisition of Capital Assets, and its implementing guides and procedures. For projects covered by DOE Order 413.3B, the DOE Acquisition Executive, the Associate Laboratory Director for Engineering and Infrastructure, and the Deputy Director for Operations must approve all applications of the graded approach, which must be described at project initiation. For smaller projects/experiments and GPP projects that are not covered by DOE Order 413.3B, the overall principles of DOE Order 413.3B shall be applied, but to a lesser degree of rigor. A Project Execution Plan is not required. Utilizing the laboratory Work Planning Process (reference ENG-032) the Laboratory Project Management Officer will consult with the Project Manager, Responsible Line Manager and the Engineering & Infrastructure Associate Director to
