Policy
The major Agency Risk Management (RM) documentation sources
are:
NPD
7120.4C, Program/Project Management which describes
the management systems for program/project formulation,
implementation, and evaluation.
NPR 7120.5D NASA Space Flight Program and Project Management Requirements, which dictates basic risk
management requirements.
NPR
7120.6 The NASA Lessons Learned Process
NPR 7120.7 NASA Information Technology, Institutional Infrastructure Program & Project Management Requirements
NPR
8000.4 Risk Management Procedures and Guidelines,
which provides additional information for applying risk
management to programs and projects as required by NPR
7120.5B.
Procurement
Notice (PN) 97-58, Risk Management which describes
requirements for risk management in the acquisition lifecycle
Code
Q S&MA Documentation Tree (General Link)
The aforementioned Agency documentation requirements for
risk management can be summarized in the following eight
(8) requirements:
- Program and project decisions shall be made on the basis
of an orderly risk management effort
- Risk management includes identification, assessment,
mitigation, and disposition of risk throughout the project
formulation, approval, implementation, and disposal phases
- Project/Program Manager (PM) has the overall responsibility
for the implementation of risk management, ensuring an
integrated, coherent risk management approach throughout
the project
- Risk management planning will be developed during the
program/project formulation phase, included in project/program
plans, and executed during the implementation phase
- Programs and projects will develop and maintain prioritized
risk lists
- Programs and projects must develop and clearly communicate
"success criteria" to all levels of the program and project
to define the scope of the effort and to guide risk decisions
- Programs and projects must define, within the constraints
imposed upon them (e.g., budget, schedule), what level
of risk (i.e., "acceptable risk") is reasonable for the
program/project to accept while still achieving mission
success
- Primary risks (i.e., risks having high probability and
high impact/severity) must be classified, with acceptance
rationale documented and concurred with by the Governing
Program Management Council (GPMC)

Tools
There are a variety of Agency tools for employing risk
management as part of a project team or an acquisition
effort (e.g., CRM and R-BAM). The following links provide
general information about these tools, including some
links to risk management planning tools (e.g., Risk Management
Plan template), risk identification tools (e.g., Risk
Information Sheet), and project risk documentation tools
(e.g., risk management databases). For specific information
(or training) regarding how these tools can (and are being)
utilized by various KSC organizations, please contact
John Branard, KSC Risk Analysis Manager, QA-C, 867-2268.

Program and Project Management Processes and Requirements,
as tailored for this project, and (2) describe the expectations
for the selected Risk Management (RM) practices in terms
of project usage; e.g., to better understand the mission
success sensitivity to project features, to scope the
adequacy of the budget reserve, etc.) Contact John Branard

Training
Several risk management training modules are available
for KSC project/program and acquisition teams. In addition,
general risk management training can be found on the NASA
Site for On-Line Learning and Resources (SOLAR) website.
KSC Continuous Risk Management (CRM)
Training
CRM training is available for KSC project or program teams.
For information on CRM training, please contact John Branard,
KSC Risk Analysis Manager, QA-C, 867-2268. The first two
KSC CRM training modules (Module 1 - Welcome and Module
2 - Introduction) are provided below.
"KSC
CRM Module 1 (Welcome) - This module provides an overview
of the CRM course modules and schedule
KSC
CRM Module 2 (Introduction) - This module provides
an overview of Agency risk management requirements, risk
definitions, risk/project management relationship, CRM
process steps, and RM planning information

(R-BAM) Training
R-BAM training is available for KSC Procurement Development
Teams (PDTs) for major KSC acquisitions (>5 M$, requiring
formal acquisition planning, Acquisition Strategy Meeting
at NASA Headquarters). For information on R-BAM training,
please contact John Branard, KSC Risk Analysis Manager,
