## TD Organization

**TD is a matrix organization**
**Departments are grouped by specific functional skills**
**Projects and Programs focus efforts to specific goals, using personnel from the departments**
**FY06 TD budget is 36.5M$:**
**20M$ SWF (6M$ sources outside TD)**
**16.5M$ M&S (6.5M$ sources outside TD)**

## TD Personnel (FTE)

- Oct 05 snapshot
- We have shifted FTE’s from support to scientific roles in the past 6 years within the scope of the lab funding situation

- TD’s ability to support and track record of performance on outside projects supports our requests

- 8 Aug 06

## FY06 TD Labor Plan (FTE)

- ILC / 3.9GHz / RF Infrastructure now incorporated in “Project 18,” Directorate funding—’outside’ the Division

- LHC and LARP are true ‘outside’ projects

- Machine Shop (cost neutral) and LOA

- 8 Aug 06

## FY06 TD Labor Plan (SWF)

**    ****Red**** = “outside” funding = ****8.4%**** of FY06  SWF**
**	****Green**** = “Project 18” = ****21.8%**

**TD base SWF for FY06**

## Goals of FY06 TD labor Plan 

**Goal = 1****st**** Priority is to provide needed resources to accomplish the Lab’s Run II goals ****(necessary repairs, spares, new devices for luminosity upgrades, studies related to machine performance)**
**Goal = Meet project commitments  to LHC & Auger**
**Goal = Meet ILC R&D commitments to GDE and ramp up a serious ILC effort at FNAL**
**Goal = Complete critical Proton Driver R&D + CD1 docs**
**Goal = Develop SCRF infrastructure per plan to GDE**
- Includes SCRF materials program & support for Peoples Fellow
**Goal = HFM & LARP: Nb****3****Sn Magnet R&D **
- Meet LARP commitments
- Develop HFM infrastructure

## Conclusion

**The Technical Division focuses on R&D and prototyping of components and systems for future accelerators**
**Historically TD started as “The Magnet Factory”.  We have grown and expanded our expertise as the needs of the lab and HEP have shifted.**
**TD personnel are shifted among projects upon completion and start of new projects**
**TD work does not overlap with the mission and skills of other Divisions...in fact, we look to collaborate wherever possible**
**TD hires new personnel when needs can not be met in house, or if a skill set does not exist in house**
- TD has an initial ILC FY07 request suggesting a ramp up of ~30FTE, while none of our other efforts is expected to decrease
**TD was reorganized last November to better focus on future SRF and Magnet work**
