ORR Team Members.

DOE-STD-3006-2000

The extent of the Team Leader's responsibilities may require the individual to be formally released from

other duties. The ORR Team Leader should be responsible for keeping management informed of the

team's progress and findings.

The Guide to Good Practices for Operational Readiness Reviews, Team Leader's Guide, DOE-HDBK-

3012-96, has been developed to provide information useful to an ORR Team Leader in preparation and

conduct of an ORR or Readiness Assessment. The handbook contains a discussion of the process for

preparation and conduct of the review. It also contains a lessons learned section which is a compilation

of the lessons learned from the first several years of conducting ORRs. The handbook is a useful guide

for both experienced team leaders as well as those with less experience. In addition, the DOE Internet

ORR Home Page contains many examples and lessons learned that may be of assistance to an ORR Team

Leader. This page can be accessed at http://www.dp.doe.gov/CTG/RESOURCE/orr/default.htm.

5.1.5.2 ORR Team Members. The overall responsibility of the ORR team is to examine the aspects

of the activity under review and to assure themselves, management, and the DOE that the equipment,

procedures, and personnel associated with the activity are ready for startup and safe operation.

The ORR team may consist of plant personnel or external experts (company or contractor) who have

been assembled at the request of the ORR Team Leader. The size and expertise of the ORR team

depends upon a number of factors including the complexity of the activity being reviewed, schedule

requirements, and the scope of the review. The ORR review team shall include at least one member with

qualifications (as defined in section 5.1.5.1) to assess each core requirement identified in the ORR plan-

of-action.

Representatives from operations, environment and regulatory compliance, safety, engineering, technical,

and quality assurance organizations associated with the activity but not directly responsible for it may be

selected as team members. An individual's knowledge of the particular systems, processes, safety

documentation, or facility, as well as knowledge of the ORR process should be considered.
