type

oral

Description

Space is a difficult challenge, and no complex program can be successful without a creative and thoughtful approach to quality and safety! Relying on luck cannot be the only way to proceed! Beginners or veterans, for training, for science or for industry, for small or large programs, share your projects, methods, observations, analyses of successes or failures... This session deals with methods, tests, standards for the analysis and mitigation of the many risks to maintain the desired quality and required safety. It offers an opportunity to discuss all aspects of the life cycle (including design, development and production philosophy, operations) and the associated risk management approach. It concerns all types of space missions: transportation systems, orbital systems, exploration vehicles, and is also a management, manpower and education issue.
