KEY POINTS FORKEY POINTS FORDISCUSSION DURING THE MEETINGDISCUSSION DURING THE MEETING

1. NPR: What revisions does the NPR require prior to pre-NODIS review?2. NPR: Which organization is responsible for audits to ensure that Programs/Projects follow

procedure?3. What, as an Agency, should we standardize?4. Revised Proposal Format to obtain clearer justification for NASA-Development vs. VCS

development/use.5. Proposal: How should the cost of a proposed project that crosses over multiple Centers be

scoped?6. Revised NASA Standards Development Process by obtaining “beginning” and “ending” consensus

by EMB.7. Discuss the timeframes for review of NASA Technical Standards; are they sufficient for timely

responses:- 45 Working Days for Agency-wide Review (Note: “Doesn’t apply to my Center” is not acceptable.)- 4 to <8 Weeks for OPRD Comment Resolution- 3 Weeks to Obtain EMB Concurrence

8. If NASA can use a VCS by tailoring rather than developing a NASA Technical Standard:- How will this be documented?- What will the process be?

9. Use of Revision Indicators on Applicable Documents in NASA Technical Standards.10. Chief Engineer’s Approval of NASA Engineering Standards and VCSs in Development.11. NASA’s “Mandatory Engineering Standards” List.12. Identify experts across the Agency to develop standards.13. Use of “Preferred” Standards.14. Each Center should establish a documented process for reviewing NASA Technical Standards to

ensure adequate reviews that include programs/projects.15. What is the Process for cancellation of NASA Technical Standards?

ADOPTION VS. USE OF APPROVED APPLICABLEADOPTION VS. USE OF APPROVED APPLICABLEDOCUMENT LISTS FROM PROGRAMS/PROJECTSDOCUMENT LISTS FROM PROGRAMS/PROJECTS

• Adoption of Technical Standards– Early in the NTSP, standards were adopted as “preferred” standards—endorsed for use by the Agency—

NOT MANDATORY.– Purpose was to provide data for the A-119 annual report.– Process has been discontinued by the NTSP Office based on purpose they served and labor costs

associated with review, approval, and maintenance.

• Use of Program/Project Approved Applicable Document Lists– A-119 states: “Many VCSs are appropriate or adaptable for the Government’s purposes.”– Standards are adapted by tailoring, based on program/project needs, as requirements are identified,

selected, documented, and approved for use by appropriate authorities.– Compliance with the following requirement (Draft NPR 1.4.d) would be more beneficial to the Agency than

adoption: “Program/project managers shall submit the approved listing of all selected technical standards from which program/project technical requirements will be derived to the OCE prior to the SRR.

• Note: This data, only required down to the second tier (see Appendix E), will be used to provide NASA’s annual report to NIST and will be designated in the NASA Technical Standards System for reference.”

– Tailor Non-NASA Mandatory Engineering Standards with a “Tailoring Requirements” companion document (see example) accessible with the non-NASA document on the website.

• RECOMMENDATIONS– Eliminate Adoption Process and Designation.– Remove Reference to Adoption from the Technical Standards NPR.– Submit the Draft NPR in Pre-NODIS Review.

USE OF REVISION INDICATORS ONUSE OF REVISION INDICATORS ON NASA TECHNICAL STANDARDS’ APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS NASA TECHNICAL STANDARDS’ APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS

PROS— FOR USING REVISION INDICATORS:• To maintain configuration control of the

parent document and its children’s requirements—determined by NASA experts.

• All requirements of a specific NASA standard version will be the same unless waived.

• Once selected and revision applied, no requirement to change requirements every time the standard is updated exists:

– Only review the changes and determine if change in requirements is warranted.

– Then take appropriate action.• Updates, especially in non-NASA standards,

could be incompatible with the citation in the NASA Technical Standard.

• When reviewed for update and revised, use latest version —unless there is a technical reason not to.

CONS—AGAINST REVISION INDICATORS:• NPD 8070.6 requires that the most recent

version of standards be used—an effort to keep people from using obsolete standards and ignoring revisions that generally reflect improvements.

PROPOSED RESOLUTION:

Specify the current/correct version when a standard is written.

Users of the standards should check revisions for useful/necessary improvements made—and act accordingly.

CONTENTCONTENT

ECSS factsDevelopment phase ->maintenance phase?Transition implementationNew ECSS OrganizationContent reorganization according to 3 types of

documentsECSS 2007 Work-plan

38


ECSS FACTSECSS FACTS

• Established to support the space manufacturing industry in Europe• Primary strength is to facilitate standardization of contract

requirements in customer/provider relations throughout all levels of space activities

• Catch-up production of standards during past two years (mainly in the engineering branch) has led to an almost coherent and complete set of ECSS standards

• Fully recognised by all European space entities• Call-up of ECSS as applicable standard in contracts has become a

recognised practice in European space business

=> ECSS ready to go from development phase to maintenance phase?

39


DEVELOPMENT -> MAINTANCE?DEVELOPMENT -> MAINTANCE?

• Important to gather user feedbacks: Organized several events, i.e. User day Collection of feedback from finished and ongoing projects

• Confirmation approaching to maintenance phase (less development needed). However, points to be improved gathered from user feedback:– Some Standards need to be thinner and direct application to business

(i.e. tailoring) can be improved, i.e.– Avoid mixing requirements & informative material– Focus on requirements improving their identification and avoid

recommendations

– Resolve identified overlapping of requirements on the same subjects in various documents

– Ensure that all requirements can be automatically imported into data bases (e.g. they are uniquely identified)

40


TRANSITION IMPLEMENTATIONTRANSITION IMPLEMENTATION

• Task Force #1 - Organization of ECSS, tasked to:– Assess the current ECSS organization for the maintenance phase,

including identification of specific aspects/resources for the transition – Propose recommendations and a new ECSS organization

• Task Force #2 - ECSS Content, tasked to:– Analyze the existing published standards and the draft documents

included in the ECSS ongoing Work-Plan. – Propose generic actions on the ECSS structure and type of documents

(e.g. differentiation amongst Standards/Handbooks and technical memo) and specific actions per document

THREE TYPES OF DOCUMENTSTHREE TYPES OF DOCUMENTS

• Standard– Normative document written specifically for direct use in invitation

to tender and business agreements for implementing space related activities having its content strictly limited to the statement of verifiable customer requirements, supported by the minimum descriptive text necessary for understanding their context.

• Handbook– Non-normative document providing background information, e.g.

orientation, guidelines, technical data, advice or recommendations, which contains information about how to implement space related activities.

– Note: Handbook contains data recognized as valid for use by the ECSS community.

• Technical Memorandum– Non-normative document providing useful information to the space

community on a specific subject, prepared to record and present non-normative data, which are not relevant for a Standard or for a handbook, or not yet mature to be published as handbook or standard.

Current CCSDS Status

CCSDS Management Council workshop in Brussels June 25-27. Follows IOAG meeting

Expect IOAG actions to CCSDS Major IOAG issue: Cross Support Actions

IOAG wants CCSDS-developed cross-support architecture, catalog

NASA SCaN is developing NASA Consolidated Network Service Architecture for DSN, GN, SN

At IOAG meeting in Spain, NASA’s future SCaN architecture meets ESA’s equivalent

Expect much fallout for CCSDS to work Business processes: Enable Web-based chartering, document

project management, better RID accountability OMG co-located at this meeting

Plan to discuss overlap, conflicts, collaboration, etc.

58


ISO TC20/SC13 topics: Closing in on agreement to have joint Navigation Orbit Data

Message format with ISO TC20/SC14Had major issues at outset. Finally prevented issue of two

competing standards from the two groups Reopening proposal to ISO to put SC13 and SC14 under a new

ISO Technical Committee (TC999)Would consolidate Space Standards, separate from aviation

standards

Technical topics Some ESA momentum to drive towards plug-n-play and

application portability, versus interoperability (NASA focus) ESA driving very “prescriptive” solutions because of their

multinational contracting approach NASA preferring more interoperability focused topics, more loosely

coupled architecture

59


Constellation (C3I) and CCSDS: C3I has adopted a mix of standards, some CCSDS, some not

Adopted AOS, CFDP, NASA Experimental LDPC coding Constellation approach to IP encapsulation is an issue with

internationals and some NASA orgs (including DSN)RIDs to IP over CCSDS take issue with Cx’s IPHDLCAOS

approach (from ESA, CNES, BNSC, and NASA) CCSDS Spacecraft Monitor & Control (SM&C) group is very ESA

oriented, started with minimal NASA participation Initial NASA/C3I assessment: focus is on application portability,

not interoperabilityServes ESA needs for multinational contracting approachesNASA concerns about constraining application functionality and

innovationCx has become engaged in SM&C, ESA responding well to NASA

BackgroundBackground

• Description– NTSP delivers standards documents and publications to NASA

and Contractor entities Agencywide.– The metrics pertaining to the usage and delivery of those

documents and publications provide insight agency wide. – Metrics also provide the ability to do reporting to agency

leadership including the NASA Chief Engineer.

• Purpose– Metric data must be current, relevant, and accurate. – NTSP has contracted UNITeS to create web site content. – Metrics on utilization is a crucial factor of the effectiveness of the

NTSP.

Bring together some of NASA’s best engineers with experts from industry, academia, and other government agencies to address our highest risk, most complex issues

• Decentralized organizational structure across all Centers reporting to the NESC management office at Langley Research Center

• Engineers need to be where the problems are to stay sharp

• Synergy gained by using diverse, expert technical teams to develop robust technical solutions

NESC Model

Space Shuttle on Mobile Launch Platform


• Small core of engineering experts at Centers for insight into respective programs

• Recognized Agency discipline experts, selected as NASA Technical Fellows, leading Technical Discipline Teams (TDT)

– Use “ready” experts from across NASA, industry, academia and other government agencies to staff TDTs

– Tap “ready” experts to attack “trouble spots”

NESC Model (Continued)

Hubble Space Telescope

• Strong Systems Engineering function for proactive trending and identification of problem areas before failures occur

Focus on technical rigor and engineering excellence


• 50+ fulltime NESC-badged employees

• Current NESC employees selected from across the Agency, four external to NASA (as of March 2007)

• Encourage NESC members to remain actively engaged at their respective Centers

• Technical Discipline Teams (TDT) led by NASA Technical Fellows

− 15 to 30 matrixed employees per team

• Three cross-cutting Technical Discipline Teams

• Contracts and partnerships include industry, academia and other Government agencies on our teams
