1、Public Lessons Learned Entry: 2676 Lesson Info: Lesson Number: 2676 Lesson Date: 2010-03-31 Submitting Organization: KSC Submitted by: Marie-Antoinette Pitt Subject: Logistics Lessons Learned in NASA Space Flight Abstract: A logistics team of USA, NASA and MIT performed a study to look at current NA
2、SA Space Flight Programs (Space Shuttle and International Space Station) logistics practices. This team documented current practices areas of concerns and recommendations for future programs. Their Logistics Lessons Learned are documented in a NASA report, number NASA/TP-2006-214203. This report con
3、tains 300 lessons learned pertaining to NASA Space Flight Logistics. The report is attached. Description of Driving Event: The logistics support plan for the Space Shuttle was developed incrementally as the Program development occurred without adequate attention or funds being provided to develop an
4、d maintain the Program for the life of the Shuttle Program. This has resulted in a very complex logistics support function that works but is expensive to maintain. Lesson(s) Learned: The report documents five areas of concern for the Shuttle Program: 1. Fragmented databases between the various logis
5、tics functions resulting in redundancies and errors 2. Real-Time awareness of system health and logistics inventory levels is challenging 3. The Shuttle logistics processes are overly complex and bureaucratic 4. Current logistics practices with NASA are structured along program/project lines leading
6、 to inefficiencies Recommendation(s): 1. Establish a list of space logistics relevant requirements during the development phase 2. Empower a position responsible for logistics oversight such as a Chief Logistics Officer 3. Invest in Space Logistics modeling and analysis 4. Reduce the overlap in the
7、logistics tracking system 5.
