  1. SPSRB Project Plan TemplateInstructions / Guidance • A SPSRB goal is for “every funded product development effort responding to a user request be documented in a SPSRB Project Plan. • After the SPSRB approves the proposal for product development, the initial project plan will be drafted and used when seeking funding at the Annual Product Review • Every summer OSD leads a polar-orbiting and geostationary “Annual Product Review” where funding for existing and new projects are determined. All projects for funding consideration will develop a project plan using this template. • Routine modifications to an existing product or service that is handled through the NESDIS OSPO change management process does not have to develop a project plan, unless directed by OSPO management or requested by the SPSRB. • STAR/OSPO/OSD will develop a process to update the plans annually. In addition, projects will be periodically reviewed by management. These reviews will include assessment of all issues impacting the execution of the project. • This template will be used by NESDIS project leads to outline their plan to implement a new or enhanced product or service into operations. Occasionally, NOAA will stop a capability at a pre-operational phase. For example, a product from a research satellite may not go all the way to a full 24/7 operational phase. In such cases, this template will also be used to document plans to develop a new or enhanced product/service where the effort will end at the pre-operational development phase (i.e., we have reached our end-state for this capability). • The template is a guide and may require tailoring. However, adherence to the briefing outline is recommended because it ensures the SPSRB and Office management is presented with the information needed to make decisions. • Additional guidance is contained on the note pages. You can access the notes page by selecting “View” and “Notes Page” from the main menu. You can also print the slide with notes by selecting “File”, “Print” and select “Notes Pages” under the Print What option. • Prior to submitting final version of a project plan to NESDIS Satellite Product Manager (Tom Schott), ensure it is coordinated at the IPT level and ensure your office division chief approves the plan. • If you are tasked to do a project plan briefing at a SPSRB, the briefings are due the last Friday of the month. The presentation will be at the SPSRB which meets on the 3rd Wednesday of every month. • Send briefing to Priyanka.Roy@noaa.gov and info copy David.R.Donahue@noaa.gov and Eileen.Maturi@noaa.gov • Delete this slide before you send your brief to funds manager or the SPSRB secretaries V15 7 Apr 2014

  6. Capabilities Assessment V15 7 Apr 2014

  7. Capabilities Assessment (Continued) • Current Operational Shortfalls • Timeliness • Accuracy of Product • Define how product development addresses shortfalls • Impact if project is not funded V15 7 Apr 2014

  8. Algorithm Status and Approach • Current status of algorithms being considered in your project • Include some details on peer reviews • Include expected performance • Overview of technical approach of the algorithm and its implementation • Include brief technical description • Ancillary data requirements • Concept of operations (e.g. for each orbit level 1b radiances are read, ancillary data is read, algorithm is applied to level1b using ancillary data for initial guess, generated output is converted to several formats, output sent to server for distribution) • Briefly describe the validation concept • Include ground truth data used in validation • Metrics for assessing performance • Independent user assessments V15 7 Apr 2014

  10. Research and Operational System Environments * ESPC Target Architecture is either IBM P-series or X86 with virtualization ** ESPC target OS is either AIX, AIX with a Red Hat Linux LPAR (64-bit), or Red Hat Linux for X86 (64-bit) *** IDL and MATLAB are not supported in ESPC for science algorithm processing, only for post-processing tasks Red font indicates new IT resource requirements for this project Blue font indicates existing IT resources will be used for this project 10 V15 7 Apr 2014

  14. Plan of Operations • Product Retirement Plan • Define if we will pursue the retirement of a product as a result of implementing a new or enhanced product under this project • Archive Plan • Define need for archive, archive location and duration of archive • Define deliverables to archive (e.g., software, documentation, etc.) • Define funding cost requirements • Long Term Maintenance Plan • Define STAR science maintenance plan and funding source • Define OSPO maintenance plan and funding source • Quality Monitoring Plan • Define Quality Control (QC) tools to be developed/used • Define who will use the QC tools • Describe how the QC tools will be used • Documentation/Metadata Plan • Describe who will do documentation and metadata and what will be done • User Involvement Plan • Describe how you intend to get the user involved in project and how you will baseline their requirements for this capability (e.g., describe how you will collect user requirements and baseline requirements at PDR or a requirements review meeting) V15 7 Apr 2014

  15. Additional Guidance • Delete this slide before submission of your project plan • The next few slides show milestone templates. It is extremely difficult to capture a standard set of milestones because there are so many different types of development efforts. For example, • Standard development for a new product • Update/Upgrade to an existing product • Develop multiple new products within a project • This is where you might consider development/operational builds • Milestones should consider the standard SPSRB task for the various phases and delete ones that are not applicable. • Projects should add project unique milestones to these templates.
