RBAM Basics • To do this, we are telling everyone to use a disciplined continuous risk management process: identify, analyze, plan, track, control, communicate and document. • Identify. Sit individuals down, and point out trouble areas. • Analyze. Engage brain, preferably before buying. • Plan. Before leaping, think landing. • Track. Keep tabs on your bets. • Control. Try not to do really stupid things. • Communicate. Be real when telling managers about risks. • Document. Write it down and don’t forget.
Summary • RBAM ties the money process to the safety and mission assurance process. • Early application is showing practical benefit. Risks are being identified before announcements are let out on the street. • Risk discussions required by the new procurement notice, have been healthy reality checks as new innovative and technically challenging NASA project acquisitions come up for review.
