2. CONTENTS Impact of Differences on CM CM Similarities
Revised DOE CM Standard
Where Do We Go From Here?

3. Impact of Differences on CM
DOE – Owner, Operator, Regulator Variety of Facilities
Reactor Facilities
Nuclear Material Production & Handling
Hazardous Chemical Material
Shutdown Facilities w/all of above
Some Facilities are Laboratory Environments
Configurations Difficult to Define
Managed by Academics

4. Impact of Differences on CM
Graded CM more necessary due to Missions and Hazards
Security Issues can challenge traditional CM
Multiple Subcontractors on site
Historical Documents missing or Inadequate
D&D of facilities present unique challenges
CM Changes Occur Daily
Short-term Mission – High Risk/Uncertainty
Resource & Funding Issues More Acute

5. Impact of Differences on CM
Activities well Defined – Similar Missions
Utilities Tend to Have More Procedures
Refuelling Outages Provide Challenges
SSCs Inaccessible During Normal Ops
Concentration of Design Changes
Time/Schedule Pressures
Training Simulator Issues

6. CM Similarities Basic Concepts (3-Ball Model) the Same
Benefits of CM Being Appreciated
Risk-Based Decision Criteria Being Used
Information Technology Evolving

7. DOE-STD-1073-2003 Originally Issued in 1993
Changes with This Revision:
Focus on Maintaining CM
Less Focus on Reconstituting Design Basis
Deleted Reference to CM “Program”
Added Section on Work Control
Addresses Decommissioning

8. DOE-STD

9. DOE-STD-1073-2003 Requires Development of CM Plan:
How Key Elements are Implemented
Define the SSCs Included
What CM Training is Provided
Define Roles & Responsibilities
Control of Interfaces
Programs & Procedures that must contain CM

10. DOE-STD

11. DOE-STD-1073-2003 The Standard Provides Detailed Discussions for:
Establishing Design Requirements
Defining the SSCs to be Included
Establishing a Graded Approach
Managing Changes
Document Control Best Practices
Conducting CM Assessments
Performing CM Walkdowns

12. DOE Best Practices Incorporation of Electronic Technology
Records
Drawings
Common Data Sources
Graded Approach from DOE STD 1073
Procedures Process
QA Program
Assessments

13. Where Do We Go From Here? Continue to Benchmark and Share Ideas
Look for Opportunities
Promote Joint Working Groups
Local Initiatives; Assessments, Training, etc.
