Tailoring of GEIA-STD-0009, Rev A, Reliability Program Standard for Systems Design, Development, and Manufacturing, for Ground Systems
Abstract:
This tailoring (addendum/amplification) of SAE International GEIA-0009, Rev A, "Reliability Program Standard for Systems Design, Development, and Manufacturing", provides an effective reliability program baseline for the ground segment of space systems, which are also referred to as ground systems. GEIA-0009, Rev A and this tailoring document, together in combination, are intended for use in acquisition and study contracts for ground systems. The standard tailored by this document is intended to be used as a compliance document to specify reliability program requirements for ground systems. The objective was to implement the industry consensus reliability program standard while overlaying a limited number of DOD space-system unique requirements of implementation approaches to facilitate more effective implementation on the ground systems.
