Schedule:
Much work to do, many details Electronics, trigger, DAQ Will push HARD to preserve cosmic test in
July
Missed, but close
At risk, but ‘project’ OK

Conclusions
TOF0/1 counter construction is progressing; readout scheme worked out; software issues tackledsome installation issues to be spotted outlaser calibration system to be finalizedstill some delays arising from INFN situation not fully worked out (NTA approval, funding [up to now we are at 0 E] …)
J une 16, 2007 Wrap-up and Action I tems-Zisman 3
I ntroduction (1)•Progress continues

Status: layout ‘issue C’:
Excellent progress, but, much to doLooking forward:
Need to plan and prepare carefully!
Planning & organisation!
(Headlines) Looking forward: Phase 1:
Upstream beam line: Target:
Negotiate running in January Dust issue
Install services Q1 – 3, D2:
Vacuum vessels Alignment Sevices (power, water)
Instrumentation Downsteam beam line:
D2, Q4 – 5, Q6 – 9 Services Magnet refurbishment, magnetic testing
Instrumentation: TOF0/TOF1 CKOV
Stands Tracker DAQ Spectrometer solenoid
Infrastructure: PPS MLCR Magnetic sheilding False floor, plinth Rolling platforms Air-conditioning De-mineralised water Electrical services Network services Data link and data storage
Phase II: Absorber/focus-coil module:
Absorber Focus coils Integration
RFCC module: Cavity R&D (MuCool) Cavity design finalisation Cavity fabrication Coupling coil manufacture Integration
RF power: 4*2 MW amplfiers
Missing: driver amplifier Distribution system
Vacuum: Vacuum infrastructure
Liquid-hydrogen 4 production systems
Infrastructure: Cable management Cryogenic management
Organisation:
Project Manager/Technical Coordinatorand MICE Operations Managers
Collaboration Board
Project-management team:
Acting Project Manager: K. Long Managing the work in the MICE Hall:
Weekly ‘MICE Hall Planning Meetings’: Tuesday’s 09:00 Anyone wishing to carry out work in Hall MUST attend:
Parallel working all need to be aware/cooperate One of the CDM ‘controls’
To be chaired by Hall Manager From week after next Chaired to date by KL
W. Spensley will take over after Christmas Shutdown Reviews work done Identifies work to be done:
Agrees priorities Agrees resources Identifies potential conflicts Assigns responsibilities
Project-management: arrangements:
MHPM o/p example:
Project-management: arrangements: Have initiated ‘bottom-up’ review of MICE WBS:
Assign/confirm responsibility for the various tasks Ensure schedules are planned by those responsible for
carrying them out Ensure resource requirements are discussed
To do this have initiated: Weekly ‘MICE Schedule Planning Meetings’
Thursday’s 13:30 Gathers schedule information and prepares/discusses
schedules for i/p to, consideration by Technical Board Have begun with MICE Muon Beam and MICE Hall
This week (13Sep07) MICO meeting, so begin to expand into international MICE deliverables
To be chaired by Project Manager Presently chaired by KL To be chaired after CM19 (Oct07) by RA/AN

Work breakdown structure: revision
Plan for this week: Review at TB Present revised version to CB
Critical path & risk:
Phase I: … getting it done
Phase II: WORK SMART
Schedule revision: Revision of schedule started:
Phase I: Since July, through MSPM and MICO meetings
Phase II: Initiated at CM18 Next step this week
Delayed because of pressure of work
Original goal: ‘Baseline’ schedule at CM19 TB agree schedule review date this week
Schedule revision: example:
Uses: Monitor progress Review resource assignments
For Q35s have: Parallelised preparation Increased effort
Q35 refurbishment:
Goal:
All six ready at endof Christmas shutdown
Christmas shutdown: Hayler
Technical Board:
After TB discussion → CB
Review membership: TB meeting
Review modus operandi: TB meeting
Significant progress since CM18: Technical:
All aspects of MICE project: Phase I Phase II
Organisational: New Project Management team in place
Even more to do: As acting Project Manager, I’ve enjoyed:
Strong support from MICE collaboration Local MICE team The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (ASTeC, ISIS, PPD, TBU, …)
For the project to succeed: Richard and Andy must enjoy the same support
I am confident that MICE will drive the project through!
