8.3 Multiple Scattering in the Inner Layers (1) Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), located in Upton, NY, is owned by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and operated by Brookhaven Science Associates (BSA) under the U.S. Department of Energy Contract No. DE-AC02-98CH10886. The flagship Nuclear Physics facility at BNL is the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Collisions at the intersection of by two detectors, STAR (Solenoidal RHIC’s two rings are studied Tracker at RHIC) and PHENIX (Pioneering High Energy Nuclear Interacting Experiment). The goal of STAR is to obtain a fundamental understanding of the interactions between quarks and gluons, and the Heavy Flavor Tracker (HFT) upgrade will extend STAR’s capabilities. On February 18, 2009 Eugene A. Henry as the Associate Director of Science for Nuclear Physics (Acting) approved the statement of Mission Need (Critical Decision-0, CD-0) for the STAR Heavy Flavor Tracker (HFT) with a Total Project Cost (TPC) range of million. This Preliminary Project Execution Plan (PPEP) describes the coordination of efforts of the project team, including the processes and procedures used by the HFT Contractor Project Manager (CPM) and Federal Project Director (FPD) to ensure that the project is completed on time and within budget. The PPEP defines the project scope and the organizational framework, identifies roles and responsibilities of contributors, and presents the work breakdown structure (WBS) and schedule. The PPEP also describes the formal change control process by which project cost, schedule, or scope may be revised in consultation with the FPD and the DOE Office of Science, Office of Nuclear Physics. This PPEP is in accordance with DOE O 413.3A Program and Project Management for the Acquisition of Capital Assets.
