Developments Since CD-2 • ARRA • ARRA funds obligated to SLAC in April’09; LUSI now fully funded • LUSI has 2 ‘types’ of funds: FY’09 Appropriation and ARRA funds • Separate accounting/reporting capability for ARRA under one EVMS • ARRA required documents prepared and submitted (March’09) • Schedule • Schedule baseline is being revised; accelerated schedule pending BCP Level 2 (~June 2009) • Instrument Readiness is being accelerated NOT the CD-4 date • Staffing ramp-up accelerated • Advance Procurements ahead of schedule
Funding Profile ($ in K) Profile at CD-2: Profile After ARRA Enactment:
Instrument Schedule Acceleration - Pending • CD-0 - Mission Need: AUG 2005 A • CD-1 - Alternative Selection and Cost Range: SEP 2007 A • CD-2 - Approve Performance Baseline: OCT 2008 A* • XPP/CXI Advance Procurement (L2) DEC 2008 A* • Approve Start Fabrication of Partial XPP (L2) MAR 2009 A* • CD-3 - Approve Start of Fabrication OCT 2009 (APR’10) • XPP Early Science (L2) OCT 2010 • CXI Early Science (L2) JUN 2011 (AUG’11) • XCS Early Science (add as L2) AUG 2011 (N/A) • Complete Instruments ready for CD-4 (add as L2) MAR 2012 (N/A) • CD-4 - Approve Start of Operations AUG 2012 * Completed earlier than planned ARRA Enabled Acceleration – Pending BCP
Cost Baseline ($M) Contingency on ETC: 33% Contingency: 35.8% of work to go
Project Status (as of FEB’09) • TPC Overall Completion – ~24% • CUM CPI/SPI: 1.03, 0.98 • EAC (SLAC): $42,693 • EAC (IND. GOV): Min: $42,012 Max: $42,033 • Design Status • 1.2 - XPP: CD-3 Ready • 1.3 - CXI : ~75% CD-3 Ready • 1.4 - XCS: ~90% CD-3 Ready • 1.5 - Diagnostics and Common Optics: ~90% CD-3 Ready • 1.6 - Controls and Data Acquisition: ~85% CD-3 Ready
Project Status (as of FEB’09) • XPP/CXI Advance Procurements have started • “Partial XPP fabrication start” approved (L2) and Procurements are being placed • XCS Large Offset Mono Advance Procurement Specifications Ready
LUSI CD-3 Readiness • Have adopted a CD-3 Readiness determination Process • Major Component/Controls/DAC Preliminary Design Reviews • Independent review of procurement specifications for Design-Build • Final Instrument (integrated) Design Review • Objective: expedite Instrument deployment • By June’09, all 3 instruments will be CD-3 Ready • Coordinating the acceleration of CD-3 IPR/ESAAB • As part of this Review, requesting IPR credit for a more focused/tailored CD-3 IPR in ~July 2009
Major Risks/Mitigations • Annual funding - Continuing Resolutions (Retired) • Foreign procurements – Dollar fluctuation, sole source, ARRA requirements • Utilizing FY’09 Appropriated funds for Foreign Procurements • Critical personnel • Expedited Staffing plan • Procurements • Advance Procurement Plan developed • Weekly tracking • Increase in procurement staff • Major Components Delivery/Performance • Advance Procurements in place • Stringent tracking/QC
Conclusion • Baseline Performance • By June’09 Instruments/Controls/DAC will be CD-3 ready • Instrument Readiness acceleration is enabled by upfront (ARRA) funds • Planning a Level 2 Baseline Change • XPP/CXI Advance Procurements progressing • XCS Advance Procurement Approval – Pending • Coordinating with BES/OPA to expedite the CD-3 IPR/ESAAB • Requesting credit as part of this Review for a more focused/tailored CD-3 IPR in ~July’09
