FOREWORD

This Department of Energy handbook, Guide to Good Practices for Conducting Operational

Readiness Reviews (ORR) Team Leader's Handbook, is approved for use by all DOE Components

and their contractors.

The guidance in this document is the distillation of the experience and lessons learned during numerous

operational readiness reviews contributed by team leaders with a wide range of backgrounds. There are

many ways to perform a readiness review correctly. Each review will be conducted at a unique facility

and will involve a unique team. Every team leader will learn something new during each review. In

some cases, these new lessons will conflict with the advice provided in this document. Such lessons

learned and all other beneficial comments (recommendations, additions, deletions) and any pertinent data

that may improve this document should be submitted to the EH ORR web site: http://tis.eh.doe.gov/ORR.
