## Consolidating Legacy PREP EquipmentProject Status Report May 22, 2007Progress since last Project Status Report – Nov 14th, 2006

- ~ 1/3 of the north end of PREP’s FCC3 lower mezzanine storage area has been cleared of equipment and filled with storage cabinets from FCC321
- The north end of FCC321 has been converted to office space

- Several groups contributed to consolidating contents, relocating and excessing 2-door cabinets.  White walls now visible in some hallway areas on FCC3
- Available storage space is limiting progress of relocating cabinets from FCC3 hallways

## Consolidating Legacy PREP EquipmentProject Status Report May 22, 2007

- The number of items in the PREP equipment pool decrease by 1315 during the last 12 months
- More work needs to be done to identify further candidates of PREP equipment that are no longer useful to the lab’s present and future research programs

## Consolidating Legacy PREP EquipmentProject Status Report May 22, 2007 Progress since last Project Status Report – Nov 14th, 2006

- PPD has made good progress dismantling and removing equipment racks from the proposed storage space at KTeV
- The equipment logistics group processed several skids of equipment for excess which were issued out and located at KTeV

- Before

- After

- Will KTeV work?  Yes, but with limitations.
- No dock – outdoor loading and unloading in winter?
- Availability of enclosed glass area at KTeV (an additional 650 sq ft)?
- Storage capacity limitations
- PREP’s combined storage areas in use is ~ 3,000 sq ft (PREP’s upper and lower FCC mezzanine, FCC301, MC8)
- KTeV  storage space is ~1,000 sq ft.  Space capacity to hold         ~ 1/3 of PREP’s current stock of equipment
- ~ 50% of 31,000 pieces of equipment still in the field (KTeV, CDF, D0, MINOS, MiniBoone, E907, approved off-site loans, etc ...)
- Storage Space is key factor in moving all or some portion of the PREP equipment pool and perhaps the CD logistics operation
- FESS is searching for other possible on-site buildings/spaces

_**Relocating Equipment Storage/logistics - Space Considerations**__ _
- Suitable space for equipment storage: 2,700 - 5,500 square footage.
- Rollup door (or high bay dock area) with receiving space appropriate for fork lift, thresholds should be level with ground (no step down/step up, stairs, etc)
- Space flooring must be able to accommodate racking/shelving with heavy equipment loads (cement floor preferred)
- Access to this space needs to remain controlled to preserve the security of the stored equipment (installation of wire perimeter fence, etc)
- Environmental conditions 24x7 - normal office environment  (room temperature, humidity, minimal dust)
- Access 24x7, keys and/or card reader - no controlled areas (radiation)
- Appropriate lighting sufficient for personnel to safely move equipment
- Proximity to FCC with available immediate parking
- Office space for operations (4 people, ~600 sq ft)
- Standard office electrical power; Wired/wireless network connectivity; Telephones
- Storage for large networking spools of cables, consumables, etc....

- KTeV Option (~ 1,000 sq ft):
- Space for ~ 1/3 of PREP’s equipment currently in storage
- Retain MC8 and ~ 1,500 sq ft of storage space in FCC
- No change to current equipment allocation work flow (ESE)
- Additional handling of equipment, increase usage of CD vans
- Schedule customer pick-up of equipment at new storage facility or at FCC
- Options 1 (2,700-3,000 sq ft)
- Space for all of PREP’s HEP equipment currently in storage
- Keep small storage space in FCC  (FCC301) for small quantities of HEP equipment in high demand
- No change to current equipment allocation work flow (ESE)
- Additional handling of equipment, increase usage of CD vans
- Schedule customer pick-up of equipment at new storage facility or at FCC

## Consolidating Legacy PREP EquipmentProject Status Report May 22, 2007

- Options 2-4 (4,300-5,500 sq ft)
- Space for all of PREP’s HEP equipment currently in storage
- Space for large spools of networking cables, consumables, etc...
- Equipment receiving (dock area) and office space for CD logistics operation
- Changes to equipment allocation work flow (ESE).  PREP’s walk-up customers may need to travel back and forth from FCC to the new storage facility
- Additional handling and transporting of equipment.  Logistics group will be in the full-time delivery business
- Coordinate and schedule the deliveries of large orders of computing equipment to FCC with site 38 receiving
- On-site equipment loans, PREP’s customers will pick-up equipment at the new storage facility

- What to do next?
- More work needs be done to identify and reduce the number of items in the PREP equipment pool
- Sign KTeV MOU?  Or identify and negotiate for other available space?
- Move all PREP equipment, receiving and logistics operation out of FCC?  Size of space, environment of space, proximity to FCC, customer service, logistics and equipment allocation work flow will be some of the key factors
- Questions?
