1.0 Program Management 1.2 Program Management Planning 1.2.4 Develop Program Safety Plan 1.2.4.3 Facility Safety
NASA programs and projects make use of all types of facilities for
testing, manufacturing, processing, special use, etc. Such programs
utilize existing facilities, and may also involve the acquisition and
construction of new facilities. This section addresses safety issues
for facility acquisition, construction, and activation.
Guiding documents for NASA Facility Safety:
- NASA-STD-8719.7, Facilities System Safety Guidebook: This NASA
Technical Standard (NTS) provides a guideline for NASA facility and
safety professionals who are involved with the facility acquisition or
modification/construction process and life cycle phases at NASA
installations. This document provides fundamental information for the
development of a facility safety program during the acquisition process
and the framework for implementing facility system safety goals and
requirements into NASA facilities.
- Chapter 8 (Facility Safety) of NPG 8715.3, NASA Safety Manual w/Change 2:
This chapter establishes safety procedures and guidelines to enhance
the safety and mission success aspect of NASA's facility acquisition,
construction, and activation process. This chapter is guidance to the
responsible NASA Center program/project management, contracting office,
safety assurance, and fire protection organization personnel who
implement the safety programs essential to meeting each facility
acquisition and construction work package effort in accordance with NPG
8820.2, Facility Project Implementation Handbook.
- NPG 8820.2C: The Facility
Project Implementation Handbook (FPIH) provides a ready reference to
pertinent policy and guidance for management of facility planning,
budgeting, design, construction, and activation. This Handbook covers
the aspects of a facility project to the Facility Project Manager (FPM)
from the initial statement of the facility requirements to the final
facility activation.
