Phase C |
Phase D1 |
Phase D2 |
Phase D3 |
|
Ensure simulation design cover the needs of operations, not just space vehicle and payload testing and verification. As the program matures, the simulators should support changes in software, satellite behaviors, new anomalies, and other discoveries not previously planned or anticipated. End-to-end simulators need to be carefully planned and exercised early in the program life-cycle.

| 8-4-2 Ensure simulator use load is evaluated |
Phase C |
Phase D1 |
Phase D2 |
Phase D3 |
|
Ensure operational units develop and present realistic usage scenarios and loads for all simulators. Design often forgets to include operations, training, and urgent/critical software changes both before and after launch.
