Abstract

Large Space Systems require extensive system level coordination. In particular the evolution of system
risks, schedule and requirements need be constantly monitored and managed. To do so, information 
ow
and reporting is crucial. This paper illustrates the methods and tools developed to coordinate a large earth
observation system of systems programme. More specifically, a centralised Risk Repository was developed
to collect analyse and report risks, a Master Schedule was assembled from individual system elements and
regularly updated, and specific reporting guidelines were devised to properly plan report drafting, review
and the internal approval processes to meet stringent time and content constraints. The creation of the
above processes and tools allowed to systematically collect schedule and risk information allowing for
trend analysis and the development of parametric tools supporting future architecture optimisation and
analysis.
