| Sampling Factors: |
Location (Not Relevant: Not relevant- all activity is based at the Pasadena site)
Customer (Not Relevant: Not relevant- 2 basic customers requiring the exact same process (JPL and Cal Tech))
Size (Not Relevant: Not relevant- Projects range from 0.5 to 15, all in the small range. Project size does not impact the process executed.)
Organizational Structure (Not Relevant: Not relevant- All projects operate under the SDSIO program umbrella. Structure has no impact on the process used.)
Type of Work: Conservatively speaking, there are “science support” projects and “science web support” projects that use the same process and tools. Differing only where DAR is applied- science support projects always perform a DAR, web projects only will if a new technology must be selected. |
