About this file

This request for information from NASA Goddard Space Flight Center outlines a draft statement of work, performance specification document, and instrument mission assurance requirements for a phase A study of a low Earth orbit microwave sounder instrument planned to fly on NOAA's LEO Earth Observation System satellites beginning in 2031. NASA anticipates awarding up to four fixed-price contracts valued at approximately $5 million each for a 12-month definition phase study. The final report is due 12 months after contract award, with risk mitigation and technology development reports due at 11.5 months. Interested firms must have the necessary capabilities to meet all requirements and submit a five-page capability statement by November 8, 2022 indicating their ability to perform the effort.

DOCUMENT ORGANIZATION AND CONVENTIONS

This document establishes a risk-based application of mission assurance requirements for a Class C free flyer payload. It is organized around the following SMA disciplines/focus areas, each with its own section:

• Section 1 – General SMA Requirements • Section 7 - EEE Parts

• Section 2 – Quality Management System • Section 8 – Materials and Processes

• Section 3 – System Safety • Section 9 – Contamination Control

• Section 4 – Reliability • Section 10 – Metrology and Calibration

• Section 5 – Software Assurance • Section 11 – GIDEP Alerts and Problem

Advisories

• Section 6 - Workmanship • Section 12 – End Item Acceptance Data

Package

Each discipline/focus area is further decomposed into subsections associated with its individual SMA activities or deliverables (ex. within Section 2.2 “Quality Management System”, subsection 2.2.2 flows down the specific requirements for operating a “Material Review Board”). In instances where the risk classification does not warrant the flow down of specific SMA process/product standards, that section or subsection has been identified as “not applicable”, and the developer is expected to apply their internal standards, without government oversight.

In this document:

1. A specific requirement is denoted by “shall”

2. A good practice by “should”,

3. Permission by “may”,

4. An expectation by “will”.

The requirements in this document use the following identification convention:

3 SYSTEM SAFETY

3.1 General

SAF_01: The developer shall document and implement a system safety program, support the expendable launch vehicle (ELV) Safety Review Process as defined in Chapter 3 of

NPR 8715.7, comply with launch service provider requirements, and comply with launch range safety requirements.

SAF_02a: The developer shall include the following specific safety requirements in the system safety program:

• SAF_02b: The developer shall incorporate three independent inhibits in the design

(dual failure tolerant) if a system failure may lead to a catastrophic hazard. A prelaunch catastrophic hazard is a payload-related hazard, condition, or event occurring prior to launch that could result in a fatal injury to personnel or loss of a ground facility. A post-launch catastrophic hazard is a payload-related hazard, condition, or event occurring after launch and up to payload separation that could result in a fatal injury or loss of flight termination system.

• SAF_02c: The developer shall incorporate two independent inhibits in the design

(single failure tolerant) if a system failure may lead to a critical hazard. A critical hazard is defined as a hazard, condition or event that may cause severe injury or occupational illness or major property damage to facilities.

• SAF_02d: The developer shall adhere to specific detailed safety requirements, including compliance verification that must be met for design elements with hazards that cannot be controlled by failure tolerance. The process by which safety is incorporated into these design elements (e.g., structures and pressure vessels) is called

"Design for Minimum Risk".

3.2 Mission Related Safety Requirements Documentation

SAF_03a: The developer shall implement the launch range safety requirements that are applicable to the launch site.

SAF_03b: The developer shall implement the most stringent safety requirement in the event there are conflicting requirements. The sections below include the applicable requirements documents for the pertinent launch ranges:

3.3.3.2 Operations Hazard Analysis (OHA) and Hazard Verification Tracking Log (HVTL)

SAF_16: The developer shall document, implement, and maintain an Operations Hazard

Analysis (OHA) and a Hazard Verification Tracking Log (HVTL) to demonstrate that hardware operations, test equipment operations, and integration and test (I&T) activities comply with the safety requirements of the facilities where the activities will be performed and that hazards associated with those activities are mitigated to an acceptable level of risk (DID 3‑3).

SAF_17: The developer shall update and maintain the Hazard Verification Tracking Log during Integration and Test (I&T) activities to track open issues.

3.3.3.3 Lifting Device Safety Requirements

Check the JPSS/LEO MIS Server at https://jpssmis.gsfc.nasa.gov/frontmenu_dsp.cfm to verify that this is the correct version prior to use.

Use or disclosure of data contained on this page is subject to the restriction(s) on the title page of this document.

A Critical Lift is defined as a lift during which failure/loss of control presents an elevated risk of serious injury, loss of life, or loss of one-of-a-kind articles, or high dollar items, whose loss would have serious programmatic or institutional impact.

SAF_18: The developer shall implement the following safety requirements for lifting devices and equipment (LDE) when performing NASA work at non-NASA facilities:

• Overhead cranes, winches, and wire rope hoists shall have a dual hoist braking system installed per the NASA STD 8719.9B Sections 5.4 and 7.4. Chain hoists typically do not have dual brakes as standard equipment unless included in the manufacturer’s design when specifically requested by the user. A single hoist motor holding brake in combination with a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) dynamic braking system is an acceptable dual braking system.

• Label and tag LDE the NASA STD 8719.9B, Section 4.9 requirements with no more than it's Working Load Limit (WLL) as determined by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or its current certified WLL if that value is lower than the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) rated WLL.

• Perform an initial one-time proof load test per the following NASA STD

8719.9B, Section 4.5 requirements:

• 1.25X WLL for overhead cranes.

• 1.25X WLL for mobile aerial platforms that will be used near critical hardware.

• 1X WLL for mobile cranes and derricks (.95X to 1X is acceptable).

• 1.25X WLL for below-the-hook (BTH) lifting devices.

• Slings (i.e., wire rope, synthetics, chain, etc.,) should only be proof load tested beyond its WLL with OEM approval.

• 2X WLL for rigging hardware items used for critical lifts (i.e., shackles. hoist rings. turnbuckles, etc.,).

• Perform a 1X WLL load test every four years after the initial proof test on all LDE.

• In addition to visual inspection, perform a post load test non-destructive test (NDT) inspection (e.g., radiographic, ultra-sonic, magnetic particle, dye penetrant, etc.) on crane hooks and critical welds. A critical weld is one in which a failure would result in a failure of the hardware. The inspections will be performed by an American

Society of Non-destructive Testing (ASNT) or equivalently trained inspector."

3.3.3.4 Operating and Support Hazard Analysis

SAF_20: The developer shall perform an Operating and Support Hazard Analysis (O&SHA) to evaluate activities for hazards introduced during testing, transportation, storage, integration, and prelaunch operations at the launch site. The primary purpose is to evaluate the adequacy of procedures used to eliminate, control, or mitigate identified hazards to ensure implementation of safety requirements for personnel, procedures, and equipment during activities at the launch site.

SAF_21: The developer shall submit the results of the O&SHA as a part of the Intermediate &

Final instrument safety reports (ISARs) (DID 3-4) or safety data package (SDP) II and SDP III (DID 3-5).

3.3.4 Instrument Safety Assessment Report (ISAR)/ Safety Data Package (SDP)

SAF_22: The developer shall generate an ISAR to document the comprehensive evaluation of the risk being assumed prior to the testing or operation of an instrument. The spacecraft developer will use the ISAR (DID 3-4) as an input to the Safety Data

Package (SDP) (DID 3-5).

SAF_23: The developer shall prepare an integrated SDP to document the results of hazard analyses identifying the prelaunch, launch and ascent hazards associated with the flight system, ground support equipment, and their interfaces in hazard reports (DID

3-5).

3.3.5 Verification Tracking Log (VTL)
