  The IOTA Proton Injector (IPI), currently under installation at the Fermilab
Accelerator Science and Technology facility (FAST), is a machine capable of
delivering 20 mA pulses of protons at 2.5 MeV to the Integrable Optics Test
Accelerator (IOTA) ring. First beam in the IPI beamline is anticipated in the
first half of 2024, when it will operate alongside the existing electron
injector beamline to facilitate further beam physics research and continued
development of novel accelerator technologies at the IOTA ring. This report
details the expected operational profile, known challenges, and the current
state of installation.
