INTRODUCTIONThisdocument, thePerformanceEvaluationandMeasurementPlan (PEMP),primarilyservesasDOE’sQuality Assurance/Surveillance Plan (QASP) for the evaluation of The Regents of the University ofCalifornia (hereafter referred to as “the Contractor”) performance regarding the management andoperationsoftheLawrenceBerkeleyNationalLaboratory(hereafterreferredtoas“theLaboratory”)fortheevaluationperiodfromOctober1,2012,throughSeptember30,2013.TheperformanceevaluationprovidesastandardbywhichtodeterminewhethertheContractorismanageriallyandoperationallyincontrol of the Laboratory and is meeting the mission requirement and performanceexpectations/objectivesoftheDepartmentasstipulatedwithinthiscontract.

This document also describes the distribution of the total available performance‐based fee and themethodology for determining the amount of fee earned by the Contractor as stipulated within theclausesentitled,“DeterminingTotalAvailablePerformanceFeeandFeeEarned,”“ConditionalPaymentofFee,Profit,orIncentives,”and“TotalAvailableFee:BaseFeeAmountandPerformanceFeeAmount.”In partnership with the Contractor and other key customers, the Department of Energy (DOE)Headquarters (HQ) and the Site Office have defined the measurement basis that serves as theContractor’sperformance‐basedevaluationandfeedetermination.

ThePerformanceGoals(hereafterreferredtoasGoals),PerformanceObjectives(hereafterreferredtoas Objectives) and set of notable outcomes discussed herein were developed in accordance withcontractexpectationssetforthwithinthecontract. ThenotableoutcomesformeetingtheObjectivessetforthwithinthisplanhavebeendevelopedincoordinationwithHQprogramofficesasappropriate.Except as otherwise provided for within the contract, the evaluation and fee determinationwill restsolelyon theContractor’s performancewithin thePerformanceGoals andObjectives set forthwithinthisplan.

AdjustmenttotheLetterGradeand/orPerformance‐BasedFeeDetermination:The lack of performance objectives and notable outcomes in this plan do not diminish the need tocomply with minimum contractual requirements. Although the performance‐based Goals and theircorresponding Objectives shall be the primary means utilized in determining the Contractor’sperformance grade and/or amount of performance‐based fee earned, the Contracting Officer mayunilaterally adjust the rating and/or reduce the otherwise earned fee based on the Contractor’sperformanceagainstallcontractrequirementsassetforthinthePrimeContract.Whilereductionsmaybebasedonperformanceagainstanycontractrequirement,specificnoteshouldbemadetocontractclauseswhichaddressreductionoffeeincluding,StandardsofContractorPerformanceEvaluation,DEAR970.5215‐1 – Total Available Fee: Base Fee Amount and Performance Fee Amount, and ConditionalPaymentofFee,Profit,andOtherIncentives–FacilityManagementContracts.

II.PERFORMANCEGOALS,OBJECTIVES&NOTABLEOUTCOMESBackgroundThecurrentperformance‐basedmanagementapproachtooversightwithinDOEhasestablishedanewculturewithintheDepartmentwithemphasisonthecustomer‐supplierpartnershipbetweenDOEandthe laboratory contractors. It has alsoplaced a greater focusonmissionperformance, best businesspractices, costmanagement, and improved contractor accountability. Under the performance‐basedmanagement system the DOE provides clear direction to the laboratories and develops annualperformanceplans(suchasthisone)toassessthecontractorsperformanceinmeetingthatdirectioninaccordance with contract requirements. The DOE policy for implementing performance‐basedmanagementincludesthefollowingguidingprinciples:

• Performance objectives are established in partnership with affected organizations and aredirectlyalignedtotheDOEstrategicgoals;

• Resourcedecisionsandbudgetrequestsaretiedtoresults;and• Resultsareusedformanagementinformation,establishingaccountability,anddrivinglong‐term

improvements.

Theperformance‐basedapproachfocusestheevaluationoftheContractor’sperformanceagainstthesePerformanceGoals. Progressagainst theseGoals ismeasured through theuseofa setofObjectives.ThesuccessofeachObjectivewillbemeasuredbasedondemonstratedperformancebythelaboratory,andon a set of notableoutcomes that focus laboratory leadershipon the specific items that are themost important initiativesandhighest risk issues the laboratorymustaddressduring theyear. Thesenotable outcomes should be objective, measurable, and results‐oriented to allow for a definitivedeterminationofwhetherornotthespecificoutcomewasachievedattheendoftheyear.

PerformanceGoals,Objectives,andNotableOutcomesThe following sections describe the Performance Goals, their supporting Objectives, and associatednotableoutcomesforFY2013.

GOAL 3.0 Provide Effective and Efficient Science and Technology Program Management The Laboratory provides effective program vision and leadership; strategic planning and development of initiatives; recruits and retains a quality scientific workforce; and provides outstanding research processes, which improve research productivity.

TheweightofthisGoalis28%. The Provide Effective and Efficient Science and Technology Program Management Goal shall measure the Contractor’s overall management in executing S&T programs. Dimensions of program management covered include: 1) providing key competencies to support research programs to include key staffing requirements; 2) providing quality research plans that take into account technical risks, identify actions to mitigate risks; and 3) maintaining effective communications with customers to include providing quality responses to customer needs. Each Objective within this Goal is to be assigned the appropriate numerical score by the Office of Science, other cognizant HQ Program Offices, and other customers as identified below. The overall Goal score from each HQ Program Office and/or customer is computed by multiplying numerical scores earned by the weight of each Objective, and summing them (see Table 3.1). Weightings for each Customer listed below are preliminary, based upon FY 2012 cost figures, and are provided here for informational purposes only. The final weights to be utilized for determining weighted scores will be determined following the end of the performance period and will be based on actual cost for FY 2013 provided by the Program Offices listed below.

• OfficeofAdvancedScientificComputingResearch(ASCR)(13.3%)• OfficeofBasicEnergySciences(BES)(30.3%)• OfficeofBiologicalandEnvironmentalResearch(BER)(20.1%)• OfficeofFusionEnergySciences(FES)(1.0%)• OfficeofHighEnergyPhysics(HEP)(11.1%)• OfficeofNuclearPhysics(NP)(5.4%)• OfficeofElectricityDeliveryandEnergyReliability(OE)(2.1%)• OfficeofEnergyEfficiencyandRenewableEnergy(EERE)(13.8%)• OfficeofFossilEnergy(FE)(2.3%)• DepartmentofHomelandSecurity(DHS)(0.6%)
