Package Flight Parts

as per SCD

Qualify Flight Packaged Parts as per modified PEM

test flow (samples only)

Evaluation and Selection of a

Screening Supplier

100% Screen all parts, using test

vectors. Perform functional test, etc

Failure may require

failure analysis

Parts to the Controlled

Storage

Modify design if required and repeat

previous steps
