"" other functions: task order title: schedule risk analysis description of the work to be performed: the contractor shall perform the following task requirements: 4.1 the contractor shall participate in the development of the programmatic analysis plan (PAP) in support of the SRB review plan; reference sopi 5.0-2, appendix a. 4.2 the contractor shall participate in the sufficiently review; reference sopi 5.0-2, section 5.3, reporting on findings regarding: p/p alignment with and contribution to agency strategic goals, adequacy of management approach, adequacy of technical approach, adequacy of the integrated cost and schedule estimates and funding strategy, adequacy and availability of resources other than budget, and adequacy of the risk management approach. (see NPR 8000.4 agency risk management procedural requirements and NASA/SP-2011-3422 NASA risk management handbook for further requirements and guidance on risk management and the NASA space flight program and project management handbook for further guidance on addressing the expected maturity for each of these criteria.). The review of this information shall be coordinated between the cost analyst and schedule and risk analyst so that an integrated programmatic assessment is performed. Team discussions shall be led on schedule uncertainty and risk identification. Schedule risks shall be quantified by probability of occurrence and impact if the risk does occur. 4.3 the program/project schedule management processes shall be evaluated to determine if they are able to develop, manage and assess schedule performance. 4.4 the program/project budget, workforce and other resources, and requirements as they relate to ability to successfully implement its schedule shall be assessed. 4.5 the p/p earned value management (EVM) procedures and practices shall be evaluated and the results of EVM reports shall be interpreted. 4.6 the contractor shall follow programmatic analysis group (PAG) processes outlined in the sopi 5.0-2, section 5.4.2 and deliver the following analysis as part of the independent schedule assessment and risk analysis: 4.6.1 the contractor shall assess the management approach, practices, acquisition planning, and methods of communication and reporting with respect to the schedule. 4.6.2 a schedule quality/health assessment of the given program/project (p/p) schedule shall be performed in accordance with the NASA schedule management handbook and the government accountability office (GAO) schedule assessment guide, GAO -12-12OG, criteria. The results shall be provided to the PAG schedule lead and p/p allowing for improvements to be made prior to the SR-60 date. 4.6.3 a schedule analysis shall be performed to include: critical path analysis, total float/slack analysis, performance trends (baseline VS. Scheduled/actual and trends from previous review to current review), margin/reserve analysis, and earned value (schedule) analysis. 4.6.4 a probabilistic schedule risk assessment shall be performed. 4.6.5 resources other than budget: manpower, fabrication, assembly, test facilities and equipment, test beds, ground support equipment, launch sites, communication networks and mission operations centers shall be assessed. 4.6.6 the p/p risk management process and plan shall be assessed. 4.6.7 initial findings shall be reported to the PAG lead 40 days prior to the site review. Preliminary analysis results shall be reported one week prior to the site review at the PAG peer review. 4.6.8 the independent programmatic analysis (IPA) report shall be generated and submitted in accordance with sopi 5.0-2, appendix g. 4.6.9 the contractor shall deliver all reports and analysis in accordance with the sopi 5.0-2, to be archived no later than the site review plus twenty days. Reports and presentations: programmatic assessment plan (PAP) standing review board (SRB) kick-off presentation, IPA initial analysis results, peer review & SRB
