8-17 Level 2 Tasks

Tasks Applicable Mission Phases Description SFWC Artifacts References
8-17-1 Ensure launch vehicle and range performance is evaluated Phase D2 | Ensure range information is timely and accurate, and can support Operations teams' needs. NA NA Mission Assurance Guide, TOR-2007(8546)-6018, Rev B, Operations Readiness and Mission Operations & Sustainment Chapters
8-17-2 Ensure mission and operator task timeliness is evaluated Phase D2 | Phase D3 | During EOT and throughout spacecraft life, actual task execution needs to be collected, evaluated, and reported, and compared to expectations. Engineers provide anomaly support, and collection of anomaly data for subsequent cross-program analyses. NA NA Mission Assurance Guide, TOR-2007(8546)-6018, Rev B, Operations Readiness and Mission Operations & Sustainment Chapters
8-17-3 Ensure system problem functional allocation Phase D2 | Phase D3 | Ensure reasonable use of program resource to resolve system problems. As problems are identified, both space segment and ground segment, existing or new teams are formed to collect, analyze and recommend actions for possible return to operations. Engineers need to evaluate whether the actions are appropriate, and executed per plan. Is there funding in place at the right levels? Are contractors and government personnel staffed as expected? NA NA Mission Assurance Guide, TOR-2007(8546)-6018, Rev B, Operations Readiness and Mission Operations & Sustainment Chapters
8-17-4 Ensure work-around operability is evaluated Phase D2 | Phase D3 | Ensure how changes in operations (due to unforeseen circumstances) affect overall system performance and outputs. NA NA Mission Assurance Guide, TOR-2007(8546)-6018, Rev B, Operations Readiness and Mission Operations & Sustainment Chapters
8-17-5 Ensure non-skewed operability is evaluated Phase D2 | Phase D3 | Ensure evaluation of individual portions of the space and ground segments, without regard to overall system availability and dependability.
