SLAC

The Operations committee focuses on the totality of strategies, overall operational performance, systems including processes, tools and the associated risks and risk management to assure excellence in operations at SLAC. The scope of this committee includes protection of workers, the public, and the environment; safeguards and security, cybersecurity, and emergency management; as well as all business management functions which includes human resources, financial management, procurement, property control and accountability, information resources management, and laboratory communications.

The Projects and Infrastructure (“P&I”) committee focuses on strategy, overall performance, systems including processes and tools, along with risks and risk management for the execution of Laboratory’s total portfolio of projects. (Projects as used here mean formal line-item construction and major items of equipment projects, as well as other significant projects overseen by  SLAC’s Office of Project Management.)

The Science and Technology committee (STC) has two primary functions: (1) to assess SLAC’s mid-to-long range science and technology program strategy; and (2) to assess progress against that strategy, as well as overall success and impact of SLAC’s science and technology portfolio.  In making its assessments and formulating recommendations, the STC considers how well SLAC’s scientific and technology program strategy and performance advances DOE’s mission and leverages shared education and research goals with Stanford. The STC may also consider the needs of external stakeholders integral to SLAC’s mission, such as user communities, industry, and other agencies.
