THEMIS Project Management 22 UCB, June 14-16, 2004 Resources SSL Projects at CDR “Moon/Mars” Delay for MMS & SNAP removes incentive to complete Will Lose Talent Capable of Building MMS unless something done Moon- Mars Gap
THEMIS Project Management 23 UCB, June 14-16, 2004 Resources Facilities Chamber Availability at UCB/SSL Numerous Tanks of Varying Sizes & Types – All Still in Use by STEREO! One New Chamber Needed for THEMIS – 3 Being Built/Tested! One Calibration Chamber Needs Parts – Could not be Fixed, Replaced. TV Plan Assumptions 2 Component-Level TV Cycles 6 Instrument Level TV Cycles Schedule has assumed new chambers are ready. Established weekly tag-up meetings on these TV chambers Put people experienced in these systems on the project Have contacted NTS (LA) for availability of chambers as a backup.
THEMIS Project Management 24 UCB, June 14-16, 2004 Cost Changes from PDR Additional Management Added Swales/FSW Oversight Growth in Probe/Probe Carrier Added RCS Pressurant System to deal with Mass Growth ESC Compliant Solar Arrays Growth in I&T Costs GSFC Review of P1 Qualification before P2-P5 Integration GSFC Review of F1 Qualification before F2-F5 Qualification Growth in LV Cost All “TLX” separation system recommended by GSFC Disallowed as a Mission Unique by KSC
