Status: layout ‘issue C’:

Looking forward: n Excellent progress, but, much to do n Need to plan and prepare carefully!

(Headlines) n Phase 1: n n Upstream beam line: n n n n n Instrumentation n n TOF 0/TOF 1 CKOV n n Stands Tracker DAQ Spectrometer solenoid Infrastructure: n n n n n PPS MLCR Magnetic sheilding False floor, plinth Rolling platforms Air-conditioning De-mineralised water Electrical services Network services Data link and data storage Absorber Focus coils Integration RFCC module: n Vacuum vessels Alignment Sevices (power, water) D 2, Q 4 – 5, Q 6 – 9 Services Magnet refurbishment, magnetic testing Absorber/focus-coil module: n Cavity R&D (Mu.

Organisation: Project-management team: Project Manager/Technical Coordinator and MICE Operations Managers Collaboration Board

Project-management: arrangements: n n Acting Project Manager: K. Long Managing the work in the MICE Hall: n Weekly ‘MICE Hall Planning Meetings’: n n Tuesday’s 09: 00 Anyone wishing to carry out work in Hall MUST attend: n n n To be chaired by Hall Manager n n Parallel working all need to be aware/cooperate One of the CDM ‘controls’ From week after next Chaired to date by KL n W. Spensley will take over after Christmas Shutdown Reviews work done Identifies work to be done: n n Agrees priorities Agrees resources Identifies potential conflicts Assigns responsibilities

MHPM o/p example:

Project-management: arrangements: n Have initiated ‘bottom-up’ review of MICE WBS: n n Assign/confirm responsibility for the various tasks Ensure schedules are planned by those responsible for carrying them out Ensure resource requirements are discussed To do this have initiated: n Weekly ‘MICE Schedule Planning Meetings’ n n n Thursday’s 13: 30 Gathers schedule information and prepares/discusses schedules for i/p to, consideration by Technical Board Have begun with MICE Muon Beam and MICE Hall n n This week (13 Sep 07) MICO meeting, so begin to expand into international MICE deliverables To be chaired by Project Manager n n Presently chaired by KL To be chaired after CM 19 (Oct 07) by RA/AN

Work breakdown structure: revision

Work breakdown structure: revision n Plan for this week: n n Review at TB Present revised version to CB

Critical path & risk: Phase I: … getting it done Phase II: WORK SMART

Schedule revision: n Revision of schedule started: n Phase I: n n Since July, through MSPM and MICO meetings Phase II: Initiated at CM 18 n Next step this week n n n Delayed because of pressure of work Original goal: n n ‘Baseline’ schedule at CM 19 TB agree schedule review date this week

Schedule revision: example: Q 35 refurbishment: n Uses: n n n Monitor progress Review resource assignments For Q 35 s have: n n Parallelised preparation Increased effort Goal: All six ready at end of Christmas shutdown

Christmas shutdown: Hayler

Technical Board: Review membership: TB meeting Review modus operandi: TB meeting n After TB discussion → CB

Conclusions: n Significant progress since CM 18: n Technical: n All aspects of MICE project: n n n Organisational: n n New Project Management team in place Even more to do: n As acting Project Manager, I’ve enjoyed: n Strong support from n n Phase II MICE collaboration Local MICE team The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (ASTe. C, ISIS, PPD, TBU, …) For the project to succeed: n Richard and Andy must enjoy the same support n I am confident that MICE will drive the project through!
