## Run IIb Upgrade Project

**Project Status Overview**
**Management/Schedule**
**AFEII-t review and management**
**Schedule**
**PPD reporting**
**Other Reviews**
**Installation review**
**BCP Review/Status**
**Cost**
**Current baseline cost including AFEII-t**

##  AFEII-t Review 

**Director’s review of the AFEII-t project occurred April 13-14**
**See ****http://d0server1.fnal.gov/projects/run2b/Meetings/DirectorsReviews/AFEII_April_2005/Review_web.htm**
**Review covered physics case, technical progress during R&D and cost&schedule.**
**Written report by reviewers highlighted**
**Schedule risk**
**Urged to maximize management and reporting**
**Weekly reporting**
**Added production manager**
**Urged to prioritize specifications**
**We are doing this**
**Cost risk**
**Urged to mitigate risk of layout flaw of the TripT by adding an additional cycle of TripT production**
**Increased cost and pushed out schedule**
**Urged to gain schedule by using contigency to speed up procurements**
**We are doing this. Also planing to pay OT for AFEII-t board layout work.**
**The directorate has approved the AFEII project with the above caveats**
**We will be adding a L2 milestone via the PEP during the BCP (this is how DOE wanted it done)**

##  Run IIb Upgrade Organization

**AFEII now a L2 subproject**
**Also added management **
**Bob Demaat: AFEII-t production manager**
**More about the AFEII upgrade status from Alan**

##  Project Schedule: Director’s Milestones

**Current best estimate for RunIIb installation readiness: 9/16/05**
**(Currently) driven by silicon L0 ready date**

##  Project Status/Reporting

**Have started regular weekly meetings with Joel Butler and Greg Bock to report on the project**
**Format for weekly project reports has been proposed/discussed**
**Very informal reports with bad grammar and ??’s in it**
**Really meant to have informational content**
**Consists of milestone tables/projects plus some text to discuss issues and concerns**
**Also has some integration dates and progress since this feeds into installation understanding**
**Basically we report weekly on all milestones in the project as well as any concerns/resource needs/etc.**
**Includes Trigger, Online, Silicon and AFEII-t subprojects**

**Example excerpt from a weekly report**

##  Installation Review 

**PPD organized a review of the D0 RunIIb installation schedule on June 3**
**Review committee was charged with evaluating the D0 installation plan and advise PPD on its likelihood of success**
**This means commenting on both the proposed start date and duration of the installation**
**5 reviewers scrutinized the D0 installation schedule**
**Gino Bolla, Doug Glenzinski, Steve Nahn, Ron Ray, Jeff Spalding**
**Conclusion:**
**D0 was unlikely to be ready for an Oct 3 startup date**
**Highly likely to be ready for Oct 31 start**
**(note this was D0’s first proposal for shutdown start date)**
**The committee felt more information was needed to comment strongly on duration date**
**Wanted to hear more details of the full installation job and not just the most delicate part of inserting L0 into the D0 detector**
**Wants D0 to work on compressing the schedule other than the delicate insertion part**
**The committee suggested another review around late July/early August would be useful**
**More information on silicon mockup installation tests**
**More information on RunIIb schedule/commissioning altogether**
**Overall, D0 agrees with this**

##  Baseline Change Proposal Review(s) 

**DZero had a special PMG on April 27 dedicated to reevaluating the cost of the upgrade project**
**Aim was to reevaluate the contingency and return what wasn’t needed**
**Looked at risk and project estimate to complete to recalculate contingency**
**Change requests and BCP were generated**
**We have implemented all necessary change requests and they are reflected in April’s CPR**
**This exercise was repeated with the DOE May 27**
**Comments on the BCP were made**
**More details are requested as an attachment to the BCP**
**Risk analysis, FTE and cost tables**
**We are working on this**

**From proposed Baseline Change Proposal**
**Total cost savings of $1.8M**
