LBNL PMO:
DOE Directives Website Guide
Embedded Files
The LBNL Project Management Office (PMO) recognizes that there are a great deal of definitions and acronyms that are unique to the DOE environment that project teams may have some questions about. Thankfully, the DOE's Directives Program in the Office of Management (MA-1.2) (which oversees the development and maintenance of directives like DOE Order 413.3B) has a useful website that links directly to the DOE Directives and Guidance documents as well providing an easy way for project teams to learn about some important concepts, definitions, terms, and reference documents.
This PMO guide is intended to help LBNL project teams quickly and easily navigate the DOE Directives website to find relevant information.
