3. Probe Dry Mass Reserves <15%

Criticality

If: The Probe dry mass reserve is below the recommended margin of 15%, Then: Fuel propellant and delta-V capability is reduced and secondary science will be impacted.Med

Mitigate:All mass changes approved at THEMIS Project level.

90% of Probe 1 mass has been weighed.

Mass budget reserves is 7.7%.

No changes to mass reserves

1. Insufficient Schedule Reserves

Criticality

If: The project cannot develop a robust resource loaded schedule for the production mode of delivering 5 spacecraft buses and 25 instruments,Then: The project schedule reserves will quickly erode.

Mitigate:Organize schedule reviews with AETDStatus and review project schedules on weekly basis

Project schedule reserves is 22 days (1.1 mo/yr).

First Probe bus will be delivered to UCB in mid November.

Med

Code 500 and APL are reviewing multipaction test margins.

Mitigate:Work with Code 560 to develop appropriate diplexer acceptance tests.

If: Diplexer is not properly tested for multipactionThen: Diplexer performance maybe compromised.

GSE modified so this anomaly can be isolated to either the GSE or transponder.Transponder #3 and #4 have completed ATP without repeating the failureTransponder #5 has initiated ATP

Mitigate:Monitor transponders 2-5 for repeat of failure.Code 500 performing a system of communication system

If: Transponder is the cause of the anomolyThen: Project schedule will be impacted

4. Lost of lock during ATP (non repeatable) believed to be a GSE anamoly

Criticality

Med

If: The reliability for S/C post-mission disposal being less than .99 is deemed unacceptable,Then: Significant cost, schedule, and mission impact can result.

Mitigate:Obtain early approval from NASA/HQ for the current reliability value.

Swales incorporating Boeing/KSC launch vehicle data for final report.

ODA rev B will be submitted 11/30.

5. Orbit Debris Analysis (spacecraft)

Criticality

Low

6. Insufficient support during Mission I & T

Criticality

If: UCB SSL has inadequate spacecraft bus support during mission I & TThen: Problem and failures during testing will impact project schedule reserve

Mitigate:Develop a detailed resource (personnel, facility, GSE) loaded schedule for mission I &T.Obtain needed commitments from support groups (i.e. Swales, JPL, SSL etc.)

Code 300 will provide additional QA and Safety support at both UCB and JPL.

Code 500 is reviewing Mission I&T plan and will provide recommendations
