The Scientific Computing Division follows a rigorous process for allocation of hardware resources and human capital. This process advises SCD on procurements for the facility. Each year operating experiments present to an advisory board (SCPMT Advisory Board) what their computing needs are for the next two years. Advisory board recommendations guide budget planning and resource allocations for the coming year. Advances in computing R&D enable utilization of new techniques and technologies to improve operational efficiencies and effectiveness. 5/16/16Nigel Lockyer | Fermilab Operations Review11 Operations for Advanced Computer Science

Examples include: Muon Campus – General Plant Projects (GPPs) and Accelerator Improvement Projects (AIPs) Short Baseline Neutrino (SBN) program Applying Best Practices from Projects to Operations 5/16/16Nigel Lockyer | Fermilab Operations Review23
5/16/16Nigel Lockyer | Fermilab Operations Review24 Strategic Plan
Fermilab has four core capabilities that together define the scope of the laboratory’s strategic plan. Each core capability is defined in terms of: Alignment and relevance to DOE missions (such as operating forefront user facilities) and national needs Combination of facilities, equipment, and people Unique and/or world-leading aspects The laboratory’s strategic plan is aligned with the strategy established in the U.S. strategic plan (P5 plan) for particle physics. 5/16/16Nigel Lockyer | Fermilab Operations Review25 Summary
