Subject: Transforming for the Future at Greenbelt and Wallops. It is important to note that the memo says \u201cunlike previous large-scale Center reconfigurations, which occurred over a number of years, all planned moves will take place over the next several months and will be completed by March of 2026.\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/nasawatch.com\/trumpspace\/nasa-goddard-begins-to-disassemble-itself\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Full text below<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>Dear Colleagues: As you know, the Center has been working for many months now on various areas of transformation to best position the Center for the future. Last week, Agency leadership gave Goddard a green light to move forward with plans in one of these transformation areas \u2013 building occupancy and utilization at the Greenbelt and Wallops campuses.<\/p>\n<p>Beginning Wednesday, Sept. 24, we will initiate a series of moves at both campuses that will reduce our footprint into fewer buildings. This plan encompasses both office and technical space. We will bring down overall operating costs while maintaining the critical facilities we need for our core capabilities of the future. Fortunately, in 2019 the Center\u2019s 20-year Master Plan was approved by NASA leadership. Our transformation efforts will leverage this plan, which builds on our competitive strengths and delivers on our role in advancing the agency\u2019s priorities.<\/p>\n<p>Completion of this element of our overall Center transformation is an absolute priority for Goddard Space Flight Center at Greenbelt and Wallops. Further, unlike previous large-scale Center reconfigurations, which occurred over a number of years, all planned moves will take place over the next several months and will be completed by March of 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Details of the plans will come from your organizational Institutional Operations Council (IOC) member listed below, but we are sending this notice now because the first set of moves starts this week.<\/p>\n<p>Building a robust future for Goddard and Wallops is going to require a commitment to adapt and change from all of us. That begins now, and Cynthia and I look forward to your commitment and support.<\/p>\n<p>Raymond J.
