RFA 16 – ISOC req’ts RE I&T, SAS
•
RFA 16 Specific Request:
– The mechanism for ISOC requirements being placed on I&T and SAS is not
obvious. How do ISOC requirements get levied on I&T and SAS? Does ISOC
sign off on I&T and SAS specs and functional designs?
•
Response
– Potential requirements are discussed at the regular working meetings now
held between the staff of these two subsystems. If requirements are found
that are not currently covered within the existing documents, a change is
jointly proposed and the relevant documents are modified.
– Where joint requirements were found, we have agreed to share personnel
to execute them. Specific examples include:
• We required I&T to fully document their calibration procedures for use
during operations and we are now sharing a technical writer who is
working with I&T and ISOC to ensure that the resultant documents
meet requirements for both subsystems.
• The ISOC also required that I&T data be consistent with ISOC needs.
The ISOC is providing the database programmer needed by I&T and
will thus ensure that the resultant database meets of the ISOC.
– ISOC is involved in the development of all LAT Specs and functional
designs. The ISOC manager is a signatory on all plans from the I&T and
SAS subsystems.
