Mission Statement - MCD

• The Material Control Department's purpose is to
  support the ongoing activities and projects with
  which the Technical Division is involved. We
  typically get involved early in a project
  estimating costs and providing expertise on
  manufacturing and quality engineering issues. As
  a project evolves, we initiate procurements for
  the parts, tooling, and supplies necessary to
  support the fabrication efforts. We provide
  source and incoming inspection services
  throughout the project. After items pass
  inspection, we provide storage and inventory
  control functions for devices such as
  accelerating structures, magnets, and their
  components. Additionally, we offer metrology and
  fabrication procurement services to Fermilab and
  to other National Laboratories. The Material
  Control Department is committed to ensuring that
  deliverable items meet our customer's
  specifications/requirements and that a safe work
  place is provided for our employees while
  protecting the environment.
