What is Property?
What is Property?
Anything purchased on Berkeley Lab funding is owned by Berkeley Lab on behalf of the Department of Energy. It is the responsibility of the custodian for LBNL property to ensure it is accounted for and maintained. Berkeley Lab applies unique barcode tags to Equipment items costing $10K or more (Controlled) and items that are Attractive by definition, highly portable, easily converted to personal use and more susceptible to theft than other property regardless of cost, i.e, computers. Property costing less than $10K and not sensitive by definition is tagged, when appropriate, with an orange tag identifying it as “LBNL/DOE U.S. Government Property”. Such property is called Administratively Controlled Property.
The IT Property Management team ensures effective and efficient management of government assets within the division. By working directly with Berkeley Lab Property Management and our division staff, we support the needs of Berkeley Lab and the DOE by overseeing end to end management of assets.

Turn-in Excess Property & Asset Retirement
Turn-in Excess Property & Asset Retirement
All personal property identified by a barcode tag and recorded in the Berkeley Lab Asset Management System (Sunflower) is subject to inventory control and DOE regulatory requirements. When property is worn out, lost, stolen, damaged beyond repair, destroyed, declared excess, or otherwise removed from Berkeley Lab inventory control, the property must be retired from Sunflower. When government property is deemed “excess” to the needs of the property custodian and the division, it is sent to Excess & Salvage. Upon receipt, the property is made available for reutilization to Department of Energy agencies, other Federal government contractors, educational institutions, and nonprofit organizations.
To turn in assets for excess and salvage or to begin the asset retirement process, please contact Property Coordinator, Tonisha Garza.
