Engineering tools are essential to the construction of an accelerator. They are used from the very early stages in the processes that bring objectives and ideas to a conceptual design, engineering specifications, mechanical models, installation plans and finally installation with fine-tuned alignment.

Test and measurement data is collected at various points in the life cycle of an accelerator magnet. By looking at the data through the lens of numerical modelling, e.g. with a numerical simulation at hand, one can exploit structure in complicated inverse problem solving and reverse engineering tasks. For this reason, the Test and Measurement section (TE-MSC-TM) is developing digital twins for...

The Beam Instrumentation Group (SY-BI) is responsible for designing, building and maintaining the instruments that allow observation of the particle beams and the measurement of related parameters for all CERN accelerators and transfer lines. Those instruments are often highly specialised and require the design of dedicated electronics, especially but not only for the elements exposed to...

As CERN operates its accelerator complex with a high-energy charged particle beam, the interaction of this beam with various systems designed to guide, shape, absorb and produce secondary particles, results in production of radioactive components and the activation of nearby equipment.
Consequently, the components need to be safely managed and handled once they are removed from the...

This talk introduces the concepts of global system optimization applied to technical projects. This approach is particularly valuable in large-scale projects, such as accelerator designs, where multi-expert teams are involved, and interfaces management is crucial. By adopting a global optimization strategy with simple tools, we can achieve economically optimized systems (considering both CAPEX...

NA-CONS adopted an in-house methodology (OpenSE) supplemented by industry-wide acceptable standards (PMI) to establish Project management fundamentals within the Project. The project utilizes a combination of tools & processes to plan, execute, and monitor project deliverables. Briefly outline the benefits and limitations of this approach. Highlight the future paradigm and possible evolution...

The HL-LHC is a complex project involving numerous collaborations and diverse funding lines, including HL vs HL-CONS and sources from CERN vs In-Kind contributions. Its organization is based on Work Packages (WP), making it unmanageable without a methodological tool like Earned Value Management (EVM). According to the PMBOK Guide, EVM is "a management methodology for integrating scope,...

The HL-LHC aims to enhance the LHC performance increasing the LHC integrated luminosity by a factor of ten. The project relies on the design, fabrication and installation of cutting-edge systems and equipment. Methodological coordination management is crucial to handle the complex interlinked deliverables and successfully integrate them into the new HL-LHC facilities and LHC tunnel.

In the last years, the BE-EA Group has applied the configuration management strategy developed by EN-ACE to the experimental areas (North and East Area, AD and ELENA Complex, HiRadMat Facility) to have a clear and coherent picture of any beamline at a given point in time. As an essential tool for quality management, configuration management facilitates an increased physics time for the...
