1. Your request for an additional 4,500sf of office
space at Ames was placed with those of other organizations
resident in Ames that have similar requirements. From that
group of requests an Ames backfill plan was formulated and is
now pending approval. Because the total space requests at Ames
exceed the size of the space to be vacated, the amount
earmarked in the plan for office of Research and Development is
approximately three quarters of the amount requested.
2. After the proposed backfill plan is approved,
Logistics facility planners will contact all organizations that
are to receive additional space to work out the details of the
backfilling moves. Your contact in Real Estate and
Construction Division for matters concerning Ames Building is
Branch. He can be reached on

MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Logistics
FROM: Philip K. Eckman
Director of Research and Development
SUBJECT: ORD Space Requirements
1. The Office of Research and Development (ORD) requests
your assistance in obtaining additional office space in the
Ames Building to accommodate current and projected overflow of
personnel. Because the anticipated move of DS&T to new
25X1 facilities has been significantly delayed, we
anticipate remaining in Ames Building for the forseeable
future. Some of our Divisions are already overcrowded and we
project further overcrowding as we approach our authorized
ceiling.
2. Specifically, we propose relocating our largest
Division and using the vacated space to accommodate overflow
from other ORD components. To do this, we would require space
for the following:
Because of both their grade level and the nature of
their work (frequent meetings with contractors and customers),
all of the above require private offices. (At the moment,
of them are sharing two-man offices.)
Nine computer work stations
These work stations are used by both staff employees
and on-site contractors. They are currently colocated in one
area so that they are accessible to all; they should remain
colocated in the new space.

SUBJECT: ORD Space Requirements
These work stations can be colocated in one room.
25X1 The Division currently has =contractors with VNE badges who
work part-time in Ames Building, and is scheduled to have
25X1 0 student co-ops beginning this summer. Because of the
varying work schedules of the contractors, 6 work stations
should suffice to accommodate these employees.
Conference Room (seat 16 - 20)
ORD technical officers act as COTRs for contracted
research on behalf of other Agency components. This role
requires that they hold frequent briefings involving Division,
customer and contractor personnel. A conference room is
required for these briefings.
Reception Area
This area should include space for two secretarial
work stations, a reception/coat area, Division safes,
bookshelves, credenza, and a coffee pot area.
3. Using the office and work station s that were
25X1 applied in drawing up the requirements I believe
that the total amount of additional space that ORD requires is
approximately 4500 square feet. I .am requesting space in Ames
Building rather than Key Bui ing because I do not believe it
is in the interests of this Office to have its components in
separate buildings. Moreover, the Division that is to be
relocated has a great deal of computer equipment located in
ORD's 5th floor vaulted screen room. Division staff and
contractors use this equipment on a regular basis and require
ready access to it and the services of ORD's computer
operations manager to help with operations and maintenance.
4. I understand that the FBIS space in Ames Building,
which will be vacated this summer, is already allocated to
another component. I am submitting these requirements in the
hope that FBIS's move from Key Building will allow other
components housed in Ames Building to move, in toto, to Key
Building. If it is not possible to obtain additional space in
Ames Building for ORD, I would like to pursue the possibility
of moving the entire Office to other leased space, either in
Rosslyn or closer to Agency Headquarters.
