Phase C |
Phase D1 |
|
Ensure applicability of models (if any are generated for program) for use in system operations. Models should be validated through testing well prior to operations readiness (preferably through prior use during systems development).

| 4.5.6-11-3 Ensure proper launch site processing procedures are complete |
Phase D1 |
|
Evaluate test plans and testing after integration with launch vehicle to ensure that integration and the launch pad environment will not cause any damage. Ensure that launch rehearsals address planned procedures and contingency operations.

| 4.5.6-11-5 Ensure that, through telemetry and analysis, functionality of each unit on the system is verified on-orbit |
Phase D2 |
|
Ensure that any on-orbit telemetry/health results for payload units and subsystems are in family and trending reasonably with pre-launch test results and any similar on-orbit assets.

| 4.5.6-11-6 Ensure on-orbit tests are representative of on-orbit nominal operations and perceptive enough to demonstrate operational parameters |
Phase D2 |
|
Ensure that planned on-orbit testing incorporates flight operational parameters and restrictions (including noise floor limitations due to space loss and celestial noise sources, exclusion zones imposed due to safety or vehicle limitations, or mechanical structure slew rate restrictions.

Phase B |
Phase C |
Phase D1 |
Phase D2 |
Phase D3 |
|
Ensure that anomalies from both in-system (common program) and cross-systems (supporting or parallel programs and services) are evaluated and considered in the event of on-orbit anomalies. Disposition of the anomaly must consider reachback, reachacross and reachforward. Final disposition should be entered into a lessons learned database as appropriate to the security level of the anomaly and program.
