GLAST LAT Project Response to Peer Review RFA 6 Request: – Need to provide more information on the planned and actual staffing profiles. Identify which areas that are needed now are not filled, what is being done to fill them, and their role in being able to prepare for the ISOC CDR. The ground software engineer for example would seem to be a prerequisite for preparing for the CDR, let alone actually conducting it. Would also seem to need a test engineer ISOC Subsystem 1 GLAST LAT Project Response The staffing profile for the ISOC has been developed and the budget for activities agreed upon with SLAC management. – See chart on next page for staffing by function – The large jump in FY05 reflects the CD4 milestone (delivery to NRL for environmental test) and the end of the construction phase of the project; at this point most LAT staff (e.g. SAS, FSW etc) are in the ISOC. We have hired a software engineer (Steve Culp) who is developing an architecture for the ISOC operations software. We have hired a software engineer (Jim Lemon) who will implement the ISOC databases We have hired a technical writer (Lee Steele) who will develop the remaining ISOC documents including the Operations handbook. We will need additional software developers/physicists later in CY 04. We have no current unfilled slots.
