The GRAIL Mission (cont.)• Science objectives:
– Determine structure and interior of the Moon, from crust to core
– Understand thermal evolution of the Moon– Extend knowledge to other terrestrial
planets• Mission outline:
– Twin spacecraft launched on aDelta 7920H-10
– 9-month mission; launch in Sept 2011– Low altitude, 50-km polar orbit– 82-day primary mapping mission– Spacecraft operates at ~200 km
separation– Extensive science data analysis– E/PO MoonKAM cameras engage public – Heritage: GRACE-like mission concept – Heritage: Spacecraft from LM: XSS-11
and MRO
• Science measurements and payload:– Ka-band ranging system (with
GRACE heritage) measures relative velocity of CM of two spacecraft
– DSN used for absolute position determination
• Mission management:– MIT: PI, SRS contract for E/PO– GSFC: Gravity science modeling and
data analysis– JPL: PM, SE, MA, MO and GDS,
payload, LM spacecraft system contract, data processing

CDR Preparation: Organization• The project established a review preparation team with key roles:
– Review Captain • Team leader• Lead for gate products and presentation materials instructions, guidelines,
interpretations, content review• Supported by project schedule analyst
– Documentation Lead• Lead for gate products and presentation materials formatting, editing, production• Supported by other technical writers and reproduction contractor
– Information Systems Lead• Lead for file formats, data repositories, access privileges, and for IT requirements at
the remote site• Supported by project librarian and CM engineer
– Logistics Lead• Lead for logistics actions and for logistics requirements at the remote site
– Site Coordinator• Lead for hotel negotiations/contract and on-site support staff
• The team employed a detailed preparation schedule to make sure all actions were identified, assigned, and completed on time

Pre-CDR Reviews• As proposed, GRAIL conducted a battery of pre-CDR reviews
(throughout 2009)– 28 element CDRs/Technical Interchange Meetings (TIMs) covered all spacecraft
subsystems and all instrument assemblies; also covered requirements, V&V, and mission design and navigation
• Top-level assessment of the instrument at Payload CDR (July 2009)• MOS CDR scheduled for after Project CDR (May 2010)• Delta-CDR required for the Spacecraft Avionics (Dec 2009)
• All reviews had board reports, Recommendations For Action (RFAs), and project responses

Gate Products• NPR 7120.5D does not specify any gate products for Project CDR. NPR 7123.1 does
specify (explicit or implied) gate products as entrance criteria for the review• JPL Flight Project Practices does require extensive gate products at CDR
– Fewer in number than for PDR – and many were updates of PDR deliverables• Gate product content and format are not always clear
– GRAIL Review Captain and JPL Project Support Office provided instructions and made interpretations, as required
– In many cases NASA or JPL templates exist (e.g., NASA 7120.5D template for Project Plan, JPL template for Project Acquisition Plan)
– In other cases NASA or JPL instructions exist (e.g., NASA Safety Standard instructions for orbital debris assessment)
– Also available were examples from other projects (e.g., Juno project’s Science Data Management Plan)
• Product generation instructions were issued• GRAIL developed a detailed tracking matrix to ensure all gate products were identified,
assigned, reviewed, and signed in a timely manner• Review Captain determined methods for project internal review• Documentation Lead provided GRAIL-formatted document shells, and her team provided
custom graphics, technical editing, etc., as requested by the authors• Logistics Lead coordinated signatures, both on-site and remotely from a nationally
distributed team• Project Librarian uploaded signed documents to the SRB’s repository (PBMA)
Taylor This document has been reviewed for export control and it does NOT contain controlled technical data. 11
Presentation Materials• GRAIL took a thoughtful approach to defining the CDR agenda
– Tell the GRAIL story—each day of the review had a theme:• Day 1: What is GRAIL?• Day 2 & 3: What will fly?• Day 4 (half day): How will we operate and support it?• Day 4 (remainder): SRB deliberations; outbrief to project team• Day 5: SRB deliberations
• The project employed a multi-day Outline Review well in advance – To make decisions early—no text slides allowed!
• Presenters brought in stub slides (title, key points, identification of photos/tables/graphics/video clips/etc.)
• Results: moved material between presentations or to backup (or primary); revised flow of presentations (delta agenda); adjusted time allocations; identified slide types for standardization
• Issued slide generation instructions (including template slides) • Followed by a multi-day Dry Run (including a “do-over day’)
– Export compliance check performed in real time (by trained project personnel)• Issued finalization and submission instructions • Final slides given QA check/correction by Review Captain, Documentation Lead
Taylor This document has been reviewed for export control and it does NOT contain controlled technical data. 12
IT and Logistics• IT needs to be designed-in from the beginning
– Engineering environment for project work (e.g., project library, Product Data Management System, electronic conferencing, etc.)
– Access controls (including participation of foreign persons)• For the CDR, identify the equipment (with backups) and the operators
– Cover project needs, SRB needs, and attendee needs• Logistics must start early
– Key decision: Review on-base or off? (Book early)– Arrange facility, equipment, technical support, administrative support– Key decision: Who should and should not attend?
• Include precautions for Foreign Persons
• There are a large number of “little things” that all must be done or the problems won’t be little: Have a checklist
• Special considerations for remote-site reviews in upcoming slide
Taylor This document has been reviewed for export control and it does NOT contain controlled technical data. 13
SRB Coordination• The NPR 7120.5B SRB process is in some regards still a work in progress
– 7120.5D provides the concept and the deliverables• The SRB Handbook provides some how-to’s
– The Decision Authorities and the SRB Chairperson and Review Manager (RM) have significant leeway regarding “how” and “when”
• Absolutely critical: Start the board-establishment process six months in advance of the first life-cycle review (GRAIL did not and was significantly impacted)
• Almost as critical: start the draft Terms of Reference (ToR) while the nominations are being processed
– Key elements to negotiate: Scope of review (any special assessments), pre-review documentation deliveries (including schedule), participation of SRB members in project-internal reviews – we did all these & still held the review without a signed ToR
• Establish regular communication with the SRB Chairperson and RM– Set up the repository for project deliveries to the SRB– How you deal with the SRB before the review makes your first impression
• Having SRB members participate in the pre-CDR reviews was very helpful– Pre-educates the board; provides insight into careabouts and concerns
Taylor This document has been reviewed for export control and it does NOT contain controlled technical data. 14
Remote-site Considerations• Holding a life-cycle review at a remote site requires additional actions
– All of the infrastructure you have at home base must be obtained or accessed
• Establish a local Site Coordinator (SC) to lead the on-site activities• Provide the SC with your requirements (meeting room, equipment,
support services, support staff)• Make an early reconnaissance trip to meet with the local principals
– To make sure requirements are understood and priced– To identify overlooked requirements and action items
• Employ regular tag up telecons and frequent e-mails to keep everything visible and timely
• Identify the local norms and accommodate to the extent possible– Educate the SC and team on project and government contracting constraints
• Make the on-site staff full members of the team and be sure to acknowledge their contributions at the review
Taylor This document has been reviewed for export control and it does NOT contain controlled technical data. 15
Summary• “Haste makes waste”: Beginning late on preparations for a life-cycle
review is asking for trouble• Although the SRB process is evolving, the essentials of preparing for a
life-cycle review are clear– Establish a review organization with clear roles and responsibilities– Identify all required activities and have a detailed schedule– Determine how to handle pre-CDR reviews, gate products, presentation
materials, IT, and logistics– Establish the SRB, and your relationship with it, early and clearly
• Leverage institutional resources and learn from other projects• More information is available in the IEEE paper “Reducing NPR 7120.5D
