The NCSX Engineering Web – An Overview

1. The NCSX Engineering Web – An Overview Part IV Engineering Management & Systems Engineering and Other Module 2D

2. Purpose • Provides overview indoctrination of several parts of the NCSX Engineering Web • This module will focus on the last two parts of the NCSX Engineering Web • Engineering Management & Systems Engineering • Other • Parts I–II and IV will provide overview indoctrination of the other parts of the NCSX Engineering Web • Part I (Module 2A) – Work Planning & Project Control, Project Files, and Management Plans & Procedures • Part II (Module 2B) – Specs, Design Criteria, & Statements of Work and Design Reviews, Analyses, and R&D • Part III (Module 2C) – Design Data and Fabrication Assembly, and Installation & Test Plans • Later modules to go into much further depth on how the NCSX Project will do business • The NCSX Engineering Web is, to a major extent, the electronic NCSX filing system • Exceptions are the models and drawings contained in the Pro/INTERALINK data base and the hard copy supplier and other PPPL documents stored in the PPPL Operations Center • However – bulk of files stored electronically on this web Module 2D

3. Engineering Management & Systems Engineering • Engineering Mgmt & Systems Engineering • Information Links • Critical Issues • Org Chart • WBS Dictionary • ECPs & ECNs • Stellarator Info • Electronic Signatures Module 2D

4. Critical Issues As part of the WP process, risks are identified per ENG-032 processes when the WP is initiated Purpose of Critical Issues List is to identify near term risk items that have been identified and to track their status • 3 Stages of Risk Mitigation • 1 – risk identified but no mitigation plan formulated • 2 – risk mitigation plan now formulated and being implemented • 3 - risk retired Module 2D

5. NCSX Organization Chart Overall Project and Engineering Organization Charts Color Coding Reflect Home Organization Module 2D

6. WBS Dictionary Describes Scope of Project Module 2D

7. ECPS and ECNs Links to Forms Details of Each ECP Link to Each ECP Module 2D

8. Interface Control Scope Sheet are Interface Planning Documents ICDs Represent Formal Agreements Between WBS Managers on Interfaces Module 2D

9. Electronic Signatures • Tabulation of Approved Electronic Signatures • User can ensure that signature is valid • NCSX Utilizes Electronic Signatures for Majority of Project Documents/Drawings • Requires Adobe Acrobat 5.0 or later Module 2D
