Schedule Management
NASA requires specific types of Programs and projects to execute the Schedule Management function. While not required in totality for execution by some types of small-scale projects, it is strongly encouraged as a proven management practice that increases the effectivity and efficiency of Program and project performance.
The NASA Schedule Management function strives to:
- Ensure that Agency policy and guidance documents reflect consistent information regarding how to meet schedule management and schedule assessment requirements
- Reinforce existing and establish new sustainable best practices for schedule management and schedule assessment
- Establish a community of practice that can strengthen the schedule management capabilities through Agency-wide communication (best practices, lessons learned, etc.), improvement of methodologies and tools, and training of personnel
- Provide reach-back for Programs and projects with respect to schedule assessment expertise
- Work with other programmatic disciplines to ensure an integrated approach to advancing the schedule management and schedule assessment capabilities through data collection and research
