2、e NASA Engineering and Safety Center (NESC) responds to requests from programs/projects to independently analyze complex or difficult problems encompassing a wide range of technical issues and disciplines. The NESC responds with an integrated technical “tiger team” that includes scientists and engin
3、eers from all NASA Centers and industry/academia members as warranted. The NESC has achieved numerous successes to date by institutionalizing the tiger team approach. These diverse and effective tiger teams were made possible by using the One NASA model.Description of Driving Event: Agency programs
4、and projects occasionally require “tiger teams” to assist in solving difficult or complex technical problems, or to independently verify solutions to critical problems. Analysis and solutions to these problems require teams of diverse discipline experts typically not resident at the program or proje
5、ct Agency Center.Lesson(s) Learned: Many scientists, engineers and project managers are not fully aware of what resources are available within the Agency. Additionally, experience has shown that scientists and engineers from outside of the program or project can better solve some seemingly intractab
6、le technical problems. This “fresh look” approach is valuable in uncovering issues not found by the original engineering team. Bureaucratic hurdles within the Agency impede development of tiger teams. Recommendation(s): Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without lic
7、ense from IHS-,-,-Programs and Centers should embrace the One NASA approach and take advantage of all of the Agencys resources and not be limited to what is available in their own organizations. The NESC has achieved numerous successes to date by institutionalizing the tiger team approach, made poss
8、ible by following the One NASA model. The NESC operates as a true One NASA organization by engaging all NASA Centers and Headquarters, in the mutual goal of increasing safety through engineering excellence. Evidence of Recurrence Control Effectiveness: The NESC has found success by taking the One NA
9、SA approach. The diversity of a multi-disciplined team of experts experience can result in the ability to solve many complex technical problems.Documents Related to Lesson: N/AMission Directorate(s): a71 Exploration Systemsa71 Sciencea71 Space Operationsa71 Aeronautics ResearchAdditional Key Phrase(
