Imagine California's stem cell agency a year from now. What is its staff going to look like, its management? What sort of offices might they be working in?
Some indication can be had from documents linked to the RFP for the permanent headquarters. They show that CIRM plans to have 10 top executives with the chairman and president occupying 300 square foot offices.
The agency also wants its new permanent headquarters to contain two conference rooms (750 square feet each) that could accommodate up to 50 persons and four "quiet" rooms for small meetings (two at 150 square feet and two at 250 square feet). Plans call for an employee lunch room (250 square feet) with a dishwasher, full size refrigerator, stove, dishwasher and microwave oven.
The following executives of the agency are listed: chairman, president, vice chairman, deputy chairman, chief legal officer, chief administrative officer, chief scientific officer, chief communications officer, director of government relations and program director. The president and chairman are slated to work in 300 square foot offices. All the rest have 200 square foot rooms.
The plan calls for 37 scientific, medical, technical and administrative staff with 150 square foot offices. Administrative assistants are provided specifically for the president and chairman and one other AA is allocated generally. They are scheduled for 100 square foot open work areas. Out of the 37 staff, presumably at least eight or more would serve as secretaries or assistants to the top executives.
The offices will be well wired with fiber optic cable and a minimum of two voice and two data outlets (more in top executive offices) and cable TV outlets throughout.
The information is contained in documents here and here posted on the Web site of the state Department of General Services.
