Fermilab Technical Division July 10, 200611 Test & Instrumentation Dept. Mission The Test and Instrumentation (T&I) Department of the Technical Division (TD) is a service and development organization. The department performs measurements and test of both R&D and production accelerator components, and develops technologically advanced instrumentation, control solutions, and cryo-mechanical systems for accelerator applications. The major customers of the T&I department are other TD Departments and TD Projects. The highest priority of the department is to provide efficient and effective support of testing programs to our customers through the products we deliver. These products are test data, instrumentation components, and systems for use within and outside the department. The two major accelerator technologies that the department supports are magnets (conventional and superconducting) and Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) cavities.

13
Fermilab Technical Division July 10, 200613 Material Control Dept. Mission The Material Control Department's purpose is to support the ongoing activities and projects with which the Technical Division is involved. We typically get involved early in a project estimating costs and providing expertise on manufacturing and quality engineering issues. As a project evolves, we initiate procurements for the parts, tooling, and supplies necessary to support the fabrication efforts. We provide source and incoming inspection services throughout the project. After items pass inspection, we provide storage and inventory control functions for devices such as accelerating structures, magnets, and their components. Additionally, we offer metrology and fabrication procurement services to Fermilab and to other National Laboratories. The Material Control Department is committed to ensuring that deliverable items meet our customer's specifications/requirements and that a safe work place is provided for our employees while protecting the environment.
