  1. National Synchrotron Light Source II Project Management Jim Yeck Deputy Director (Project Management)

  2. Baseline Development Strategy Emphasis on schedule and critical path activities Initial schedule development not constrained by funding Conventional facilities are on the critical path until 2011 Tight cost baseline with substantial contingency Strictly controlled and administered cost baseline ~35% contingency at CD-1, preliminary baseline Provision for scope adjustments based on experience prior to CD-2, project baseline Some scope restoration possible under normal market conditions Scope reductions (scope contingency of a few %) also possible

  3. DOE - Science Experience NSLS-II = 35%

  4. Work Breakdown Structure

  5. Project Scope Refinement Lattice design, circumference, and footprint fixed following a detailed review in May 2006 Required to meet performance goals approved at CD-0 Ring circumference is the most significant cost driver Adopted fixed cost approach for experimental facilities Trust fund includes contingency and is as spent dollars Conventional facilities scope is a variable Many scope reductions taken to achieve current cost goals Requires a flexible implementation plan

  6. Milestones

  7. Summary Schedule

  8. DOE Funding Profile (in $ millions) Note: Funding in FY05-FY07 is actual. The funding profile for FY08 and later is notional and will depend on the annual appropriation process.

  9. Funding vs. Present Cost Profile

  10. Possible Funding & Cost Profiles

  11. Target TPC and Operating Funds

  12. Next Steps Finalize scope, cost estimate, and contingency estimates Scope definition and WBS dictionary clarification Bottoms-up risk assessment and contingency estimates Clarify understanding of BNL responsibilities Complete schedule development Reduce FY08 and FY09 funding requirements Improve schedule logic and general technical realism Consider advice of NSLS-II advisory committees and prepare risk and “what if” analyses

  13. Project Issues Discussion (1) Funding Profile Strategies for securing a favorable construction funding profile Schedule Float Identifying appropriate control milestones, including phased CD’s Staffing Plans Ensuring that staffing plans are compatible with the project goals Scope Contingency and Scope Restoration Securing support for managing scope changes as part of the baseline expectations

  14. Project Issues Discussion (2) Managing Conventional Facilities Largest cost element, potentially volatility in market conditions, and very high level of external scrutiny expected NSLS-II - NSLS Relationship and Transition Plans Staffing, potential dark period, and reuse of NSLS beamlines Conservative DOE Milestones Need to work to an aggressive schedule and still select DOE control milestones that are likely to be achieved
