It explains the PEP’s role as the governing document and main communication vehicle between Headquarters, the Federal Project Director (FPD), and the contractor. The guide covers plan development across Critical Decision-1 and Critical Decision-2, updating as a living document, configuration control, and a recommended high-level 25–35 page structure with defined sections.","Office of Science\nOffice of Project Assessment Template\nPreparing a Project Execution Plan\nThe DOE O 413.3B requires the development and approval of the PEP for projects with total project cost (TPC) of $50M or larger. The PEP is the governing document that establishes the means to execute, monitor, and control projects. The PEP serves as the main communication vehicle to ensure awareness and knowledge of project objectives and the general approach to project accomplishment. The purpose of this Guide is to: 1) Provide guidance for the Federal Project Director (FPD) and the IPT to produce a useful and flexible plan, and 2) Provide guidance on how to appropriately apply tailoring as defined in DOE O 413.3B.\nThe PEP is the primary agreement between Headquarters, the FPD, and the contractor.\nPlan Development\nThe PEP is a living document and should be updated to incorporate any major changes.\nPreliminary PEP (Critical Decision-1). The preliminary PEP is part of the Critical Decision-1 approval package. Depending upon the type of project and team experience, information could range from larger detail regarding current or near term activities (i.e., the design phase systems, processes, procedures and personnel) to less detail for future activities concerning procurement and construction activities to even less detail regarding testing, start-up and operational transition.\nCritical Decision-2. The PEP should be updated as part of the Critical Decision-2 approval package. At this point, the PEP should contain a larger depth and breadth of information, detailed enough to bound the systems, processes, procedures and personnel and to support a well-defined scope, resource loaded schedule, definitive cost estimate, and defined key performance parameters for project execution. If any systems, processes, procedures and personnel requirements are yet to be fully defined (e.g., for testing, start-up, or operation transition) the PEP should clearly identify relevant assumptions/constraints and associated risks.\nPEP Updates. The PEP is a living document that should be updated to capture changes to project systems, processes, procedures and personnel and revisions to the approved performance baseline or a post-construction contract award. The process for configuration control should be defined, including definitions of minor/major revisions and their associated approval authorities.\nThe project execution plan (PEP) should be a high level and concise document (main text of the document, not including attachments and appendices should be approximately 25-35 pages). The following pages describe the format and content of a PEP.\nProject Execution Plan\nfor the\nPROJECT NAME (ACRONYM)\nProject # _________\nat\n_______________ National Laboratory\nLocation\nOffice of [Program Office]\nOffice of Science\nU.S. Department of Energy\nDate Approved:\n_______________________\nMonth/Year\n\u000f\nProject Execution Plan for the\nProject Name (Acronym) Project at the\n__________ National Laboratory\nSubmitted by:\nDate:\n[Name], Project Manager, [Laboratory]\nDate:\n[Name], Project Director, [Laboratory]\nDate:\n[Name], Additional Laboratory Staff As Needed, [Laboratory]\nDate:\n[Name], Laboratory Director, [Laboratory]\nDate:\n[Name], Federal Project Director, [Site Office], DOE\nDate:\n[Name], Manager, [Site Office], DOE\nDate:\n[Name], Program Manager\nOffice of [Program Office], Office of Science, DOE\nConcurrence:\nDate:\n[Name], Director\nOffice of Project Assessment, Office of Science, DOE\nDate:\n[Name], Deputy Director (for projects with TPC of $400 or larger)\nOffice of Science, DOE\nApproval:\nDate:\n[Name], Acquisition Executive (see Approval Matrix)\nOffice of [Program Office]\nOffice of Science, DOE\n\u000f\nProject Execution Plan for the\nProject Name (Acronym) Project at the\n__________ National Laboratory\nChange Log\n\u000fProject Execution Plan for the\nProject Name (Acronym) Project at the\n__________ National Laboratory\nTable of Contents\n1.\tINTRODUCTION\n1.1\tProject Background\n1.2\tJustification of Mission Ne","cbCaiexE2VK5cuCQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiexE2VK5cuCQ","docx",116389,37,"English","en",105,"# INTRODUCTION\n## Project Background\n## Justification of Mission Need\n# PROJECT BASELINE\n## Scope Baseline\n## Cost Baseline\n## Schedule Baseline\n## Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)\n## Funding Profile\n# LIFE CYCLE COST\n# ACQUISITION APPROACH\n# TAILORING STRATEGY\n# BASELINE CHANGE CONTROL\n# MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE AND INTEGRATED PROJECT TEAM\n# PROJECT MANAGEMENT/OVERSIGHT\n## Risk Management\n## Project Reporting and Communication Management Plan\n## Earned Value Management System\n## Project Reviews\n## Engineering and Technology Readiness\n## Alternative Analysis and Selection\n## Environment, Safety and Health\n## Safeguards and Security\n## Systems Engineering\n## Value Management\n## Value Engineering\n## Configuration Management/Document Control\n## Quality Assurance and Testing and Evaluation\n## Transition to Operations\n## Project Closeout","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Project Execution Plan (PEP) in DOE projects?\",\"answer\":\"The PEP is the governing document that establishes how projects are executed, monitored, and controlled, and it serves as the main communication vehicle for project objectives and the overall approach to accomplishment.\"},{\"question\":\"How should the PEP be developed for Critical Decision-1 and Critical Decision-2?\",\"answer\":\"For Critical Decision-1, the preliminary PEP is part of the approval package and may range from detailed near-term activities to less detail for future work.
