[en] The SP-100 Ground Engineering System Test Site is a facility in which the prototype of a 100 kWe space reactor will be tested. The important systems which are being designed to conduct these tests and to acquire and manage data include those required for control, plant protection and test data handling. These systems are being designed and procured by the Instrumentation and Controls (I ampersand C) section of the Test Site Engineering team. Conceptual and Preliminary design phases have been completed, and the Project is now in the Definitive, or final design stage. This paper describes the progress which has been made in the I ampersand C area to date. Design reviews of all I ampersand C systems have been conducted at the 60% completion point. The Facility Process Control System, a modern distributed sytem with CRT operator interfaces, has been ordered. Specifications for all other systems have been drafted, and will be finalized as soon as all required inputs from other sources (such as General Electric, the reactor supplier) are received. Procurement will then be initiated and schedules to mesh with facility acceptance testing schedules

[en] Contractors under the U.S. Department of Energy management have implemented a comprehensive approach to the management of design and construction of the complex facility modifications at the SP-100 Ground Engineering System Test Site on the Hanford Reservation. The SP-100 Test Site employs a multi-organizational integrated management approach with clearly defined responsibilities to assure success. This approach allows for thorough planning and analysis before the project kick off, thus minimizing the number and magnitude of problems which arise during the course of the project. When combined with a comprehensive cost and schedule/project management reporting system the problems which do occur are recognized early enough to assure timely intervention and resolution
