REAL PROPERTY ASSET MANAGEMENT
1. PURPOSE. To implement DOE O 430.1C, Real Property Asset Management.
2. CANCELLATION. NNSA Manual, Real Property Management, dated 04-01-09, and
NNSA memorandum, Implementation of DOE Order 430.1B Real Property Asset
Management with the National Nuclear Security Administration, dated 03-22-04.
Cancellation of a directive does not, by itself, modify or otherwise affect any contractual
or regulatory obligation to comply with the directive. Contractor requirements
documents (CRDs) that have been incorporated into a contract remain in effect
throughout the term of the contract until the contract or regulatory commitment is
modified to eliminate requirements or substitute a new set of requirements.
3. APPLICABILITY.
a. Federal. This applies to all NNSA Elements.
b. Contractors. The contractor requirements document (CRD) attached to this SD
sets forth requirements that apply to contractors.
The CRD must be included in contracts that involve the acquisition, management,
or disposition of real property or interests therein, and indicate when the
contractor will be reimbursed for any authorized costs.
c. Equivalency. In accordance with the responsibilities and authorities assigned by
Executive Order 12344, codified at 50 United States Code sections 2406 and
2511, and to ensure consistency through the joint Navy/DOE Naval Nuclear
Propulsion Program, the Deputy Administrator for Naval Reactors (Director) will
implement and oversee requirements and practices pertaining to this Directive for
activities under the Director's cognizance, as deemed appropriate.
4. SUMMARY OF CHANGES. Not applicable.
5. BACKGROUND. DOE O 430.1C, hereafter referred to as the Order, replaced the site-
level requirements of the prior order, 430.1B, with requirements for Under Secretaries to
meet the unique needs of their program through supplemental directives. The
Administrator will implement the Order with clarifications consistent with the needs of
NNSA’s core scientific, engineering, and manufacturing business lines, protecting the
government’s investments in real property while that property has potential value to
NNSA’s mission and while the Government holds a legal interest in the asset, particularly
for protecting people and the environment. It also protects the government’s financial
interest by disposing of excess real property as soon as possible after the excess
declaration. Real property is planned to have a 40- to 60-year life cycle, with recurring
15- to 20-year periods of renovation and renewal, and should be managed with a life-
cycle perspective.
2 SD 430.1C
1-18-17
Decisions to delay real property maintenance and renewal have unavoidable impacts on
service life that may continue after the delayed work is performed. Therefore,
management decisions, including investments in new construction, maintenance,
recapitalization, and disposition, must consider minimizing the total life-cycle costs of
real property.
Section 2
NNSA actions concerning real property will satisfy all requirements of the Order, using
the following systems, tools, and programs.
a. G2 is NNSA’s authoritative data source for planning, programming, and
execution of infrastructure activities.
b. BUILDER™ Sustainment Management System (BUILDER™) is NNSA’s
authoritative data source for information related to condition and functionality
assessments.
c. Facilities Information Management System (FIMS) is the Department’s Real
Property Database of Record.
d. Master Asset Plan (MAP) is NNSA’s enterprise-wide infrastructure strategic plan.
The MAP covers the infrastructure necessary to meet current, planned, and future
mission requirements over the next 25 years, through the integration of five-year
real property planning and budgeting with longer term goals. It provides an
integrated view of NNSA infrastructure and a prioritized infrastructure roadmap
to reduce risks to mission execution in the near-, mid-, and long-terms.
e. Mission Dependency Index (MDI) is NNSA’s risk-based, consequence to mission
metric that assigns a quantitative score to a real property asset. This score
informs decision makers on the potential impact the loss of the asset would have
on NNSA’s mission.
f. Excess Facilities Risk Index (ERI) is NNSA’s risk-based, consequence metric for
retired facilities. The quantitative score assigned from ERI is used to aid
prioritization of disposition projects, based on the risk posed to worker and public
safety or mission work.
6. REQUIREMENTS. NNSA entities managing real property must keep data in G2, FIMS,
and BUILDER™ systems current. For this purpose, current means data should be
updated at sufficient intervals for the data to be used for NNSA decisions and reports at
any time, without requiring sites to review and update the data, and is sufficiently
complete and accurate to support decisions concerning funding.
a. Planning and Budgeting. NNSA shall meet the Order’s requirements for real
property asset management planning and budgeting, preparation of annual
planning guidance, real property planning, and provide five-year real property
planning and budgeting documentation.

ATTACHMENT 1: CONTRACTOR REQUIREMENTS DOCUMENT
NNSA SD 430.1
This contractor requirements document (CRD) applies to the National Nuclear Security
Administration (NNSA) contractors whose contracts involve the acquisition, management,
maintenance, or disposition of real property assets. Contractors are expected to meet these
functional requirements by tailoring their business and management practices, and using standard
industry practices.
Regardless of who performs the work, the contractor is responsible for complying with the
requirements of this CRD. The contractor is responsible for flowing down the requirements of
this CRD to subcontracts at any tier to the extent necessary to ensure the subcontractor’s
compliance with the requirements.
The DOE Order 430.1C and this CRD lay out performance-based outcomes. Where specific
guidance is not given in the Order, this CRD, the Office of Safety, Infrastructure and Operations
(NA-50) Program Management Plan (PMP), or NNSA Real Property Officer (RPO) guidance,
contractors have the latitude to accomplish the required outcomes via their own processes.
1. PLANNING. Based on NNSA-furnished program planning guidance, the contractor
must—
a. Assess the current real property assets against program mission projections;
b. Identify the specific real property asset projects and activities required to meet
program mission projections; and
c. Propose a 25-year planning horizon through the development of a Master Asset
Plan (MAP).
2. INFRASTRUCTURE DATA MANAGEMENT. The contractor must maintain G2 data
and records, Facilities Information Management System (FIMS) data and records, and
data and records to support BUILDER™ and other data systems specified by NNSA and
DOE policy. Data quality and timeliness of data should support NNSA decisionmaking
without request for data updates. FIMS data must be verified annually.
3. FACILITY UTILIZATION. Contractors must manage the utilization of their facilities
using industry best practices and applicable government standards, and in accordance
with NNSA RPO guidance. Each contractor must have a space management system,
completely accessible to federal oversight and field office staff. The space management
system must satisfy Department, regulatory, and statutory requirements for determining
utilization rates, including the requirement to produce annual reports. The data collected
by the contractor must be sufficient for NNSA and the contractor to reach agreement on
the optimum size of the site for current and future mission needs. The data must be
sufficient for NNSA’s use to justify the results to Congress, the Office of Management
Attachment 1 SD 430.1C
AT1-2 1-18-17
Section 9
and Budget, and other external stakeholders, and to meet the Laboratory Operating Board
(LOB) assessment requirement for utilization.
The contractor must have a space management system that tracks the current program
users of all facilities and ensures all users fit within DOE, NNSA, and local standards for
space usage. The system must also:
a. Ensure vacating users are not relieved of their responsibility for a space until all
programmatic equipment and personal property has been removed; personal
property must be properly relocated or stored for future use, properly transferred
or moved to an institutional entity that will be using the space, or disposed of if no
future use exists.
b. Support DOE and NNSA reporting requirements, including FIMS utilization data.
c. Be available to field office personnel and other federal oversight personnel for
review.
Contractors must ensure optimum performance of a facility, in accordance with design or
current operating needs, over the useful life of the facility, while meeting building
occupancy and mission requirements.
A subset of these data elements, or others determined by the NNSA RPO, may be
reported through G2. Further guidance and requirements will be provided by the NNSA
RPO.
4. MAINTENANCE AND MODERNIZATION. The contractor must maintain real
property assets in a manner that promotes operational safety, worker health,
environmental compliance, property preservation, and cost-effectiveness while meeting
the program missions and protecting the government’s investment in real property. This
requires a balanced approach that not only sustains the assets, but also provides for their
recapitalization and includes the following:
a. Integrated computer systems that include condition and functionality assessment
information for real property assets, a work control system, management of
deferred maintenance, a method to prioritize, and systems to budget and track
maintenance expenditures.
b. Identification of five-year maintenance and repair requirements (sustainment) and
funding for deferred maintenance reduction.
c. Identification of five-year recapitalization and capital construction requirements
to replace or modernize existing facilities.
d. Condition and functionality assessments of real property assets according to the
frequency dictated by the NNSA RPO. At least once within a five-year period,
verify that all of the required inspections are completed and ensure BUILDER™
reflects all outstanding and completed maintenance work orders for repairs and
SD 430.1C Attachment 1
1-18-17 AT1-3
overhauls. The condition and functionality assessment program shall use a
tailored approach based on facility status, mission and importance, and the
magnitude of the hazards associated with facilities and infrastructure.
Inspection methodology shall be consistent with industry best practices, and shall
include identification of safety and health hazards. Deferred maintenance
estimates will be based on BUILDER™ output. The condition and functionality
assessment program will support the reporting requirements of G2 and FIMS.
Until BUILDER™ is fully populated, each site’s current condition and
functionality assessment process must be consistent, auditable, and current by
regularly updating the site’s BUILDER™ database with outstanding and
completed work orders.
Section 10
5. DISPOSITION. Contractors must ensure vacating users are not relieved of their
responsibility for a space until all programmatic equipment and personal property has
been removed; personal property must be properly relocated or stored for future use,
properly transferred or moved to an institutional entity that will be using the space, or
disposed of if no future use exists. Contractors must also manage disposition of their
facilities to meet requirements identified by the NNSA RPO.
6. WORKFORCE. Contractors must maintain a trained workforce, sufficient to achieve the
NNSA mission. Contractors must monitor their workforce and ensure NNSA RPO is
aware of developing workforce-related issues and concerns that could create risks for
infrastructure management.
7. DOCUMENTATION. The contractor must document its real property management
activities, including (a) the site’s plan to meet program missions, (b) budgets and
planning estimates, and (c) performance outcomes via the MAP deep-dive process.
8. REAL ESTATE. The contractor must —
a. Follow the procedures specified by the NNSA RPO;
b. Prepare Preliminary Real Estate Plans (PREPs) and Requests for Disposition
(RFDs), obtaining all required approvals and concurrences before proceeding with
a real estate action; and
c. Submit all PREPs and RFDs to acquire, manage, and dispose of real property
assets to their field office and to the NNSA Headquarters (HQ) Certified Realty
Specialist (CRS) through their Field Office Manager or designee for review and
approval.
