Description
The International Space Station ISS is a complex system technically and programmatically. The Space Station must support a wide range of payloads and missions. It must be launched in many launch packages and safely assembled and operated in the harsh space environment. It is being designed and manufactured by many organizations, including the prime contractor, subcontractors, the NASA institution, and international partners. Finally, the Station has multiple customers, (e.g., the Administration, Congress, users, public, etc.) with contrasting needs and constraints. It is thus ISS strategy to proactively and systematically manage risk to help ensure Program success. The risk management process provides to the program systematic methods for identifying, analyzing, abating, and communicating risks.
