Domain Scope

The D01 Domain covers processes used to deliver the system and his associated support system required as result of a programme. According to this objective, the D01 domain develops programme management and systems engineering best practices to reach the goal in an optimize manner.

The operational target readership for the programme management includes, but not limited, programme breakdown structures, development logic with synchronization reviews (project and systems maturity reviews), risks, cost and estimating, configuration and others topics associated to the responsibility of the Programme Management Team.

The operational target readership for System Engineering technical processes includes, but not limited, expression of needs from stakeholders point of view, definition of the system during the various level of maturity of the design, system security and safety, industrialization practices from the system definition to the production end of life, the relationship with production process, capability of the logistic system to support the system, and how to ensure that the system complies with Qualification and Certification processes.

Both Programme Management and Systems Engineering practices have strong relationship and shall covers the all life cycle (from the idea to disposal) of the system required.

Working Groups of D01

D01/WG11-System definition and realization

Convener: Gilles BEUZELIN, FRAMATOME, France.
Secretariat: Marina EPIS, BNAE, France

WG Scope
The D01/WG11 will standardize the life cycle process of a product (tangible or intangible) – development, industrialization and production – from analysis of operational need to operational qualification (potentially including certification)

Example of standards published:
prEN 9208 P1 – Programme management – Expression of need – Guidance on and format for (Need) Technical Specification (NWP approved)

Future activities:
prEN 92xx(number TBC) – Programme Management – Design justification and qualification – Guide to drawing up the design justification plan and of the design justification file.

D01/WG12-Programme phasing and planning

Convener: Gilles BEUZELIN, FRAMATOME, France.
Secretariat: Marina EPIS, BNAE, France

WG Scope
This WG will standardise common repositories between the various actors intended to coordinate (synchronisation and sequencing) all the activities of a programme.

Future activities:
prEN 92xx(number TBC) – ) Programme management – Recommendations for implementation of phasing and scheduling.

D01/WG13-Configuration management

Convener: Gilles BEUZELIN, FRAMATOME, France.
Secretariat: Marina EPIS, BNAE, France

WG Scope
This WG will standardize configuration management. It consists of managing the technical description of a system (and its various components), as well as managing all the changes made during the evolution of the system. It is the set of processes to ensure a product’s compliance with the requirements throughout its life cycle.

Future activities:
Next projects planned for 2021 – revision of prEN 9223 series.

D01/WG14-Risk management

Convener: Gilles BEUZELIN, FRAMATOME, France.
Secretariat: Marina EPIS, BNAE, France

WG Scope
This WG will standardize the risk management (integral part of programme management). It should be implemented right from the start of the project feasibility phase and continue until material disposal. The ultimate goal is to contribute to an appropriate definition of programme objectives (costs, schedules and performances …) and to continuously ensure that they are met or enhanced, despite any events likely to affect the programme through its lifecycle.

Future activities:
prEN 9239 P2 – Aerospace series – Programme Management – Guide for the risk management

D01/WG15-ILS and Obsolescence Management

Convener: Gilles BEUZELIN, FRAMATOME, France.
Secretariat: Marina EPIS, BNAE, France

WG Scope
Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) is a set of techniques for defining, during the design of a system, as soon as the need for the user is identified, the support system that will be associated with the main system. Integrated logistic support aims to influence the definition of the main system to achieve better readiness while controlling the overall cost of ownership.

D01/WG16-RAMS (Reliability, availability, maintainability and safety)

Convener: Gilles BEUZELIN, FRAMATOME, France.
Secretariat: Marina EPIS, BNAE, France

WG Scope
The success of a programme depends on optimising the trade-off between the expected technical and operational performance required (in given conditions) of the products, the cost of these products and the lead-time to produce them. RAMS (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, Safety) are inherent product or system attributes that should be considered throughout it lifecycle. In this context RAMS management of the products is a key activity which cannot be separated from other product performance control or programme management.
