U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGYOffice of SciencePrinceton Site Office How’s the performance
so far?SPI = 1.09 & CPI = 1.0140% complete
Contingency = 32% of ‘to go’ costs
Budget at completion = $78.9Estimate at completion = $79.7
Level 2 milestones:Past = completed on or ahead of scheduleAhead = early completion anticipated

All scope remains as planned. TPC remains ‘on-target’. CD-4 date remains ‘on-target’ with promise of early finish. Concern: FY13+ Presidential Budget
How’s the baseline?
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGYOffice of SciencePrinceton Site Office Risks and Concerns
NSTX-U future funding profile:
FY 13 President’s budget provides reduced funding to PPPL . . . Institutional impacts are high (possible 18% cut in lab-wide staff) NSTX-U would be adversely impacted :
- Reduction in Lab-wide human resource support . . . Added risk.
- Slow down of schedule (due to a constrained budget profile) will add cost.
Actions:PPPL continues to work closely with PSO and FES to understand impacts of the budget cuts.
The Project developed actionable plans based on differing funding scenarios to determine the impacts on the project.
Early delivery date of the project will be significantly reduced, but project can still meet CD-4 baseline date.
Worst case: $5M of contingency will be released to cover “standing army” costs & indirect rate changes. Cost contingency will be reduced from 32% to 17% of ‘to-go’ work at about the 40% construction point.

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGYOffice of SciencePrinceton Site Office Thoughts
The Budget cycle is still young and unclear for FY13 and beyond.
Too early to react (i.e., re-baseline) . . but precautionary institutional planning must be done.
The NSTX-U Project’s performance is still the #1 priority as stated by PPPL Directorship and agreed upon by FES.
The Project has built a nice buffer in cost and schedule contingency to date . . . this will come in handy.
Yes . . . there will be added risk to the project . . . but, it appears that the current worst case scenario is manageable.

Construction Progress?
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGYOffice of SciencePrinceton Site Office
8
Overall Progress is good. . .Advanced procurements allowed for a good “jump start”
All construction efforts are well underway
Vendor performance is good
Critical Path. . .Remains through the construction of new Center Stack assembly
Center Stack Fabrication facility ready to start
TF Cooling tube soldering process has been developed
Management. . .EVMS system in place and fully functioning (CAP validation with this review).
Construction proceeding well on the accelerated schedule.
All CD-3 Recommendations addressed.
Project is getting the resources it needs.
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGYOffice of SciencePrinceton Site Office
Post CD-3 efforts are proceeding well… Good performance to date.
Good communication between PPPL and Site Office.
Estimates are updated and remain well within plan.
Funding and human resources are in place.
Elements of DOE Order 413.3B are met.

Conclusion
PSO, PPPL and FES must work together as the FY13 budget evolves and assess the impact to NSTX-U and PPPL.

Charge Questions1.Construction Efforts: Are construction efforts being executed safely? Does the project have adequate resources and the appropriate skills mix to execute the project per the plan?
2.Baseline Cost and Schedule: Are the current project cost and schedule projections consistent with the approved baseline cost and schedule? Is the contingency remaining adequate for the risks that remain?
3.Management: Evaluate the management structure as to its adequacy to deliver the scope within budget and schedule. Are risks being actively managed? Has the project responded satisfactorily to the recommendations from the previous SC project review?
4.Earned Value Management (EVM): Has Princeton University/PPPL implemented all required actions in the Corrective Action Plan (CAP) that was developed following the EVM system certification review from October 2011?

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGYOffice of SciencePrinceton Site Office Confidence of Success
Work is proceeding ahead of scheduleExcellent construction progress in test cellNB work on cost and scheduleCritical path work (CS upgrade) ahead of schedule
Experienced staffing . . .Senior knowledgeable staffStrong management team
