Managing a Federally Funded Research and Development Center is one of the most complex leadership challenges in the nation. DOE labs like Los Alamos face mounting pressure to deliver on national security missions while navigating outdated systems and disconnected data. This “flying blind” approach risks delays, overruns, and safety incidents that threaten performance-based fees and core objectives.

Attendees explored a proven model for connecting disparate systems and creating a single source of truth, moving lab operations from a reactive to a proactive state. 

Attendees Learned How to:

• Transform disconnected data into a strategic asset for real-time decision-making.

• Mitigate risks that threaten the core NNSA mission and the lab's performance fee.

• Increase operational capacity to drive top-line revenue growth through the "Work for Others" program.

• Provide all stakeholders—from NNSA overseers to WFO customers—with a modern, secure engagement experience.
