Description

"" other functions: task order title: payload risk classification and technology readiness level study 3.1. Various NASA science mission directorate (SMD) programs are scheduled to solicit investigations that may propose class c and/or class d payload classes. The TMC evaluation panels shall appropriately evaluate each proposal according to the applicable payload risk classification requirements. The first objective of this task is to convene a team of experts to document the TMC panel expectations of a proposed development approach for class c and class d payloads (e.g. design, testing), 2) provide recommendations on performing a TMC evaluation of mixed payload classes (instruments and cubesats), and 3) enumerate guidelines for proposers on the proposal content expected for class d and class c payloads. 3.2. Technology readiness levels (trls) are a metric developed for assessments of the maturity of a particular technology and the consistent comparison of maturity between different types of technologies. The TRL approach has been used by NASA for several years. The standard announcement of opportunity (AO) template published by NASA SMD (http://soma.larc.NASA.GOV/standardao/SAO_templates.html) and the second stand alone missions of opportunity notice (salmon-2) AO state that proposals that use technologies currently at less than TRL 6 shall include a plan for technology maturation to TRL 6 no later than KDP-c. Therefore TMC panels must have a good understanding of the exit criteria for trls in order to assess the trls of components, subsystems, and systems in proposals that are being evaluated. Therefore, the second objective of this task is to convene a team of experts to 1) prepare a tutorial workshop for prospective TMC evaluators on the updated definitions for trls, and 2) develop guidelines on how to assess trls for proposals undergoing a TMC evaluation.
