Capabilities

  Risk and Safety Assessments

Risk Methodology and Evaluation

We conduct both deterministic and probabilistic safety analyses. This field covers a wide range of disciplines, usually requiring expertise in a number of areas as well as familiarity with formal hazards and risk evaluation methods. With many engineering disciplines represented on our staff, we are highly qualified to conduct the type of in-depth hazards and risk evaluations that are necessary for modern facilities to compete in today’s highly regulated environment.

Facility Safety Assessment

Facility Safety AssessmentOperations support for nuclear facilities within Argonne and throughout the DOE Laboratory system is provided in the form of detailed vulnerability assessments required under emerging national security related regulations. We also undertake facility safety analysis report preparation and upgrade, and preparation for safety documentation to support facility modifications or special projects.
