DOE G 413.3-15, DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY GUIDE FOR PROJECT EXECUTION PLANS (12 SEP 2008)., The project execution plan (PEP) is the governing document that establishes the means to execute, monitor, and control, projects which are subject to DOE O 413.3A. The purpose of this Guide is to: • Provide guidance for the federal project director to produce a useful and flexible plan. • Provide guidance on how to appropriately apply tailoring as defined in DOE O 413.3A. The scope of this guide includes basic aspects of the development and maintenance of the plan for projects of any size and complexity for the benefit of the federal project director, who is approved by the acquisition executive, and incorporates contractor input as appropriate. Integrated project teams, program managers (if applicable), program offices, acquisition executives, and contractor project managers can also benefit from the suggestions in this guide. This Guide includes three major sections: • Approaches and interfaces. • Plan development. • Suggested content for each section of a PEP. This document also includes information on tailoring projects (Section 4.4) and PEP examples (Attachment 1), a suggested outline for a communication plan (Attachment 2), and a compilation of recommended references used to develop a PEP (Attachment 3).
