Abstract

This RMP applies to internal and external risks for the OPCGA project, and complies with the risk policies of the MSFC Microgravity Projects Group (MPG), Microgravity Science and Applications Department and NASA Program and Project Management Processes and Requirements (NPG 7120.5A). <br>This RMP applies to the entire OPCGA system, which includes the following: <br>Schedule - as defined in MSFC-PLAN-2969, OPCGA Project Plan <br>Cost - as defined in MSFC-PLAN-2969, OPCGA Project Plan <br>Performance - as defined in UCI-OPI-SRD-0001, OPCGA Science Requirements Document (SRD) <br>All external interfaces <br>All OPCGA subsystems <br>Software <br>Hardware <br>Purpose. The purpose of this Risk Management Plan (RMP) is to define: (a) OPCGA risk management responsibilities; (b) methodologies and processes to be used for OPCGA risk identification, analysis, planning, tracking, control, documentation and communication; (c) criteria for categorizing and prioritizing risk based on probability and impact; (d) role of risk management with respect to decision-making, formal reviews and status reporting; (e) documentation requirements for risk management products and actions. The intent of this plan is to help the project produce a quality product within programmatic, schedule and cost constraints.
