Multiprogram Laboratory General Purpose Facilities Studies: An Approach to Bringing Institutional Facilities to a Level of Adequacy Consistent with DOE Missions

摘要

The planning effort is concerned with facilities, i.e., the buildings, utilities, and roads, of DOE's multiprogram laboratories. An analysis of the needs of the DOE mission and program tested against the ability of the existing physical plants to accommodate those needs constitutes the basis of the effort. For each deficiency identified, solutions have been formulated as capital construction projects. Solutions which can be effected through maintenance and repair expenditures are the responsibility of each installation director and are not included herein. Management of facilities is a comprehensive process which includes organizational responsibilities, budget techniques, construction, operation and maintenance, site planning, and other similar functions. This document represents a systematic approach to identifying solutions to the problems of existing facilities, a component part of the overall facilities management program. Ten DOE multiprogram laboratories are addressed in the plan. (ERA citation 05:013752)
