OverviewOverview
• Motivation for reviewing cost and schedule– CNES in France deciding to not fund LAT work– Completion of CDR/CD-3
• Design has reached a level of maturity• Construction of flight hardware beginning
• Outcome– LAT program needs an additional $17.2 M– Fabrication Phase needs an additional $11.8 M– Operating and commissioning needs an additional $5.5 M
• Primary open issue is the time phasing of the available funds– Additional needs for the fabrication phase in FY04 = $7.6 M– Additional funding for the fabrication phase in FY04
• NASA $3.0 million• DOE $0.0 million

Definition of CD-4Definition of CD-4
Definition of CD-4 Background: When the instrument is completed and functionally tested there is a pre-environmental test review. Then the instrument is shipped from SLAC to a test facility for environmental testing. That is followed by a pre-shipment review, and the instrument is sent to the observatory integrator for integration. Proposal: Presently, CD-4 is defined by successful completion of the pre-shipment review. Using the successful completion of the pre-environmental review is more consistent with present practice on DOE projects. (The instrument will be complete and will meet the functional requirements at that point.). The effect is that the support of the instrument during the environmental test will be in the commissioning phase, similar to the commissioning of other DOE high energy physics detectors. Therefore, the proposal is to define the successful completion of the pre-environmental review as meeting the requirements for CD-4.

Definition of the IOCDefinition of the IOC
Definition of the Instrument Operation Center Background: The standard practice with DOE high energy physics detectors is that the operations center for the detector is developed by the scientific collaboration and not included with the construction of the detector. The difference with the LAT project is that the data is gathered remotely, on-orbit, and passed through a Mission Operation Center to the IOC. This requires a level of coordination of requirements and interfaces with the mission resources that is not required with local accelerator based detectors. Proposal: At present, the IOC is included in the construction project. It should be implemented by the science collaboration to be consistent with current practice and to take advantage of the resources in that group. Nonetheless, in the case of the LAT, there is a coordination effort required within the project. An IOC subsystem manager within the project is needed to provide this interface between the IOC, the instrument management and the mission management. The proposal is to include the IOC manager in the management structure of the instrument and he/she is funded by the construction project. The remainder of the costs will be funded by SLAC operating funds and collaboration resources

Stanford University LoanStanford University Loan
• Stanford University is willing to loan the project $700K to bridge from FY 04 into FY 03– The need for additional funds in FY 03 has decreased
• The mission office at Goddard has helped with ’03• The proposed change to IOC funding reduces FY 03
fabrication phase costs by $200K• This loan would only make the FY 04 cash flow problem
worse• The project proposes to not exercise this loan in FY 03
– It may be possible to negotiate as similar loan for ~$1 million to bridge from FY 05 into FY 04

Descope Options to Preserve ScheduleDescope Options to Preserve Schedule
Previously moved beam test from before I&T to Comm. Phase
oTier 1 Reprogram I&T prep and assembly of first towers Reprogram calibration modules for beam testing to be last modules
fabricated – add 2 weeks float Move environmental testing to Spectrum Astro
o Tier 2 Build 16 modules, Fly 14 (Baseline -- Build 18 modules, Fly 16)
Science impact: degradation of Aeff and FOV
o Tier 3 Build 14 modules, Fly 12
Science impact: Significant degradation of Aeff and FOV (below
level-1 requirements)
LAT and Mission designs are highly optimized. All identified descopes that are effective are also painful. Most options address potential schedule slips.

SummarySummary
• Project is starting fabrication of flight hardware– Completed the CD-3/CDR
• The instrument design is mature• A review of cost and schedule indicates that the project needs $17.2M
increase in funding to have adequate cost contingency • Also the project needs an additional 3 months of schedule to have
adequate schedule contingency• Define CD-4 as the successful completion of the pre-test review
– The Fabrication Phase needs a $11.7M increase– CD-4 date is unchanged
• Some reorganization of the LAT to better address this next phase• Increased participation by the NASA, DOE and Laboratory
management to assure resources are available• The open issue is the time phasing of the funding
– Funding needs to be moved from FY05 to FY04 OR– The work needs to be reprogrammed to move activities from FY04
to FY05 With a $1 M loan from SU, $3.6 M of work needs to move• DOE Rebaseline review on July 31, 2003
