September 8 Briefs Excerpts:

Maximo Requisition System Change Regarding Selection of Vendors for  
Class A or B Welding
A change to the Maximo Requisition System will take effect in early  
September, where additional information will be required on the first  
page of a purchase requisition. In addition to questions asked about  
radioactive material, other hazardous materials or chemicals, work  
onsite or required incoming inspections, one will have to answer if  
"Welding or Brazing is Required." When answering this question, the  
user will have to consider if the material or service is part of a  
fabrication requiring class A or B welding or brazing by the vendor.  
If you submit purchase requisitions that require welding or brazing,  
see the Briefs for the full announcement regarding fulfillment of this  
new requirement.

Major Systems Outage on Saturday, Sept. 18
The CNI group is currently planning a major computer systems outage  
for Saturday, Sept. 18, 6 a.m. - 5 p.m. During this time, all major  
systems will be unavailable, including e-mail and access to central  
file services, such as the J:, K:, L:, and M: drives, home  
directories, group areas, etc. All services will return to full  
operation by 5 p.m. For additional information, contact the IT  
Division Helpdesk at helpdesk at jlab.org or x7155.

Patent Your Bright Ideas at JLab
Is something you have made or is something you are doing in your work  
at JLab patentable? If so, the process is simple: write it down and  
enter it into the online database. The Technology Review Committee  
will take it from there. Your patentable ideas greatly benefit both  
the lab and the inventor(s), starting with a $500 cash award granted  
by JSA to the inventor(s) for each patent issued by the Patent Office.  
Once a patent is licensed, JSA and the inventor(s) evenly split the  
resulting royalties after administrative costs have been recovered.  
Still not sure? For questions and help, e-mail brightideas at jlab.org.  
The process may be accessed here: http://www.jlab.org/exp_prog/techtransfer/process.html
