Assessment of Work Planning and Control at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory
Enterprise Assessments (EA), conducted a work planning and control (WP&C) assessment at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab). The Fermilab Laboratory Director requested this assessment to gain an independent perspective on the status of WP&C. EA conducted the onsite portions of this assessment February 11-15 and 25-28, 2019. This assessment evaluated the effectiveness of the implementation of the integrated safety management core functions (define scope of work, identify and analyze hazards, identify and implement controls, perform work safely within controls, and feedback and improvement) within operations that contain physical, chemical, and radiological hazards. This assessment also evaluated elements of the contractor assurance system.
