Location (Not Relevant: All KSC personnel are co-located in one location.)
Customer (Not Relevant: Customer type does not affect the application of the NASA and KSC/NASA procedural requirements.)
Size (Not Relevant: Size of projects is not a factor in the application of the KSC/NASA procedural requirements.)
Organizational Structure (Not Relevant: The organizational structure is not a factor as the NASA and KSC procedural requirements are applied to the entire organization.)
Type of Work: There is some specific tailoring of the KSC processes depending on whether the software is developed to (1) provide the command and control infrastructure for the Exploration Ground Systems (EGS) Program, (2) perform checkout of the Ground Support Equipment, or (3) develop the integrated firing room console applications and displays for pre-launch and post-launch activities. |
