SUBJECT:	WORK AUTHORIZATION SYSTEM


1.	OBJECTIVES.  To establish a work authorization and control process for work 
performed by designated site and facility management contractors, and other contractors 
as determined by the procurement executive, consistent with the budget execution and 
program evaluation requirements of the Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Planning, 
Programming, Budgeting, and Evaluation process.

2.	CANCELLATIONS.  DOE O 412.1 Work Authorization System, dated 4-20-99.  
Cancellation of a directive does not, by itself, modify or otherwise affect any contractual 
obligation to comply with such a directive.  Cancelled directives that are incorporated by 
reference in a contract remain in effect until the contract is modified to delete the 
references to the requirements in the cancelled directives.

3.	APPLICABILITY.

a.	Primary DOE Organizations, Including National Nuclear Security Administration 
(NNSA) Organizations.  Except for the exclusions in paragraph 3c, this Order 
applies to all Primary DOE Organizations that direct work to be performed by site 
and facility management contractors and other contractors determined by the 
procurement executive.  (See Attachment 1 for a complete list of Primary DOE 
Organizations.)  This Order automatically applies to Primary DOE Organizations 
created after it is issued.

The Administrator of NNSA shall assure that NNSA employees and contractors 
comply with their respective responsibilities under this Order.

b.	Site/Facility Management Contractors.  This Order will be applicable to 
contractors by provisions within the Department of Energy Acquisition 
Regulation (DEAR).

c.	Exclusions.

(1)	Facilities and activities of the NNSA Office of Naval Reactors and 
Bonneville Power Administration are excluded from the requirements of 
this Order.

(2)	Work involving reimbursable work for others and services, products, or 
materials regularly produced for sale at scheduled rates under DOE 
programs (e.g., routine irradiation services, radioisotopes, production or 
transmission of electricity) are excluded from the requirements of this 
Order.


4.	REQUIREMENTS.

a.	Authorizations and deauthorizations for all DOE funded work must be 
documented in work authorizations.  [Paperless generation and electronic transfer 
are preferred (see Attachment 2 for sample format).]

(1)	A program office may request a contractor to use a suggested standard 
work proposal (Attachment 3) to provide information for program 
planning, budget formulation, or documentation of part or all of a work 
assignment.
(2)	A site and facility management contractor may use a work proposal to 
propose work to a program office (see Attachment 3 for sample format). 

b.	At a minimum, each work authorization will contain the following information:
(1)	project title and reference to work proposal number, if applicable;
(2)	Headquarters programmatic point of contact, organization, and telephone 
number; 
(3)	Headquarters budget point of contact, organization code, and telephone 
number; 
(4)	responsible program; 
(5)	responsible program Secretarial Officer;

advances or technical progress); and
(14)	Headquarters, field organization, contractor, and if involving changes to 
scope, schedule, or funding, contracting officer signature blocks.

c.	Each work authorization must have a unique, standardized identification number, 
which must remain unchanged for the total life of the work assignment.

d.	The statement of work will include the following information as appropriate:

(1)	detailed statement of work to be performed or reference to a work 
proposal, project plan, or similar document describing the scope of work 
in detail;
(2)	required milestone dates;
(3)	deliverables, including technical information as required by DOE 
O 241.1A, Scientific and Technical Information Management, dated

G 120.1-5, Guidelines for Performance Measurement, dated 6-30-96, and 
any additional guidance that will assist the contractor in the performance 
of the work.

e.	DOE field organizations (contracting officers) must receive a work authorization 
signed by the appropriate Primary DOE Organization, who must review and 
approve the work as acceptable for the contractor before obligating funds for the 
contract.

(1)	Program offices may delegate some of the program managers’ 
responsibilities and authorities to DOE field organizations (e.g., 
assignment of tasks and/or distribution of funds to contractors under their 
cognizance).

responsible for preparing and issuing the work authorization.

f.	A signed copy of each work authorization accepted by the contractor must be 
forwarded to DOE (preferably electronically) as evidence of acceptance of the 
authorized work.

(1)	If the authorization does not change scope, schedule, or cost (e.g., 
incremental funding), then contractor signatures are not necessary.  (Note, 
however, that if any changes are made, this information should still be 
forwarded to DOE as noted above.)
(2)	Work is not authorized to commence until the contractor receives both 
funding (via a signed contract modification) and the related work 
authorization.
