MIPO
- Provides a mechanism for:
– Detailed and integrated scheduling – Assessing realistic budget constraints with contingency – A management chain integrated with the funding paths, thus providing a clear chain of responsibility
- Comments:
- A realistic and robust schedule cannot be achieved on the basis of a
simplistic model of components being delivered to RAL for modular integration into a beam line
– Risks and potential for contingencies are simply too great – Systems integration issues are significant – These issues have major budget and manpower impacts for the primary members of the construction effort
- Construction and integration of a muon cooling channel requires a
more holistic approach

Near Term MIPO Priorities
- Detailed analysis of contingency issues
– Requires integrated team – Requires integrated tools – Requires an agreed upon model for managing a project with significant technical risks still active
- Thus providing a schedule which
– Realistically assesses the budget and contingency constraints – Can specify the expected dates for experimental capabilities with a high degree of reliability
- And also budget assumptions to complete each
experimental step which are believable

MIPO Challenges
- Have already discussed integrated scheduling and a
mutually agreed upon model for assessing budget and contingency
- Management of contingency across international
funding boundaries remains challenging
– Potential bias in the solutions chosen – Potential inefficient use of resources
- Need a clear funding profile among all major
participants that accounts for contingency so as to enable proper execution a Would like to negotiate with funding agencies how to implement this

MIPO: in operation
- Many discussions on implementation of MIPO, how it
- perates, interface with MICE collaboration etc.
– Realised when asked at RLSR that we were not clear amongst ourselves about the details of its operation
- Propose to produce a one-page specification for the
- peration of MIPO in time for the MICE collaboration
meeting at FNAL/IIT in 17—19 June 2013
– Andy Nichols has agreed to produce this document on this timescale
