NTSP Overview

• NASA Technical Standards Program was established in 1997

• Program objectives: – Establish and Maintain “NASA Technical Standards” as a Common Baseline

for NASA Programs• Evaluate, Support, and Adopt National and International Standards where

they meet NASA’s needs• Develop Internal NASA Standards where available standards are not

adequate

– Support the Use of Technical Standards on NASA Programs in the Systems Requirement Process

• Provide Access for All <nasa.gov> Users to Full Text Standards ~ 370 Sources at http://standards.nasa.gov

• Link Standards to Lessons Learned for more effective use• Provide automated Notice of Updates for Standards registered by users

https://standards.nasa.gov

4

Primary Activities of NTSP

Document• Manage the development of NASA Standards where no industry

standard will suffice

Deliver• Provide access to government and industry standards through the

Standards and Technical Assistance Resource Tool (START)

Educate• Create awareness about the Program’s mission and activities

across the Agency• Assist and educate users on the functions of START

https://standards.nasa.gov

5

• Agency-wide access to ~1.4M Specifications, Standards, and engineering tools http://standards.nasa.gov

• Approximately 13,000 registered users

• Watch Lists/Alerts Feature– Provides electronic notification

of revisions for registered standards imposed on contracts by program/projects

• Technical Standards Tutorials to provide more information on high-profile standards

NEN/LLIS/START Integration

Provide bidirectional navigation between NASA Lessons Learned and NASA/Industry/Government Standards to improve visibility of the related content to the users.

Integration of NEN, LL and Standards significantly improves the interoperability of the NASA Lessons Learned and the Standards program and increase the overall value to the NASA user community.

NEN/LL/NTPS USER REQUIREMENTS

1. Quick, simple pointers and links.

2. Common (or more similar) look and feel.

3. Refine business processes and templates (for Standards, Lessons, etc.) to harvest more metadata as NEW products are developed/generated.

4. Update metadata on existing products (Lessons, Standards, etc).

5. Common search-retrieve device.

6. Live update device/process to allow users to update a reference within products.

Introduction to the LLIS

• Web-based system developed in 1994

• Over 2,000 Lessons dating back to 1972

A lesson learned is knowledge or understanding gained

by experience. The experience may be positive, as in a

successful test or mission, or negative, as in a mishap

or failure. Both should be considered excellent

sources of lessons learned.

13http://llis.nasa.gov/http://nen.nasa.gov/web/LL

Lessons are available on a Public and Internal Site

14

Existing documents such as PowerPoint presentations, white papers and technical reports can be used to create lessons

A lesson learned entry 1) pertains to safety or

mission success2) is likely to be relevant to

other projects3) does not duplicate an

existing lesson learned

15

Lessons learned are important to future programs because they show insights from previous projects.

A lesson learned is knowledge or understanding gained by experience. The experience may be positive, as in a successful test or mission, or negative, as in a mishap or failure. Both should be considered excellent

sources of lessons learned.

End of Program Lessons Learned Collection KSC Shuttle Ground Ops (184 lessons identified)

• Many of these lessons learned entries concern the interface between the space shuttle system and the ground processing infrastructure.

• Design considerations & requirements can be mined for road mapping infrastructure upgrades for Commercial Crew, 21st Century Launch Complex, Heavy Lift and Flagship Technology.
