1 National Aeronautics and Space Administration Applied Engineering and Technology Directorate AETD Overview to the GCA Dennis J. Andrucyk Director January, 0 NASA Goddard Space Flight Center A459_AETD_template.ppt

2 AETD Overview A diverse, talented and highly educated workforce, unique facilities and laboratories, all working as one to serve the Science and Exploration communities and making the Nation s Vision for Space Exploration a reality. AETD holds ~4% of the Center s civil service population AETD is the main source for employees migrating into the Center's Senior Technical and Management pipeline The success of NASA/GSFC Projects depends upon the technical competence and capability of AETD AETD is the steward for engineering excellence and Engineering Technical Authority at GSFC

7 A Service Organization Matrix environment Scientists get most of their engineering support from AETD Engineers deployed to project team(s) AETD is responsible for engineering processes and technical products, and for delivering in commitments to either Scientists or Projects All engineering for Projects comes via contracted deliverables Clear policies and guidelines Robust internal system of checks and balances Excellence in systems design and implementation World class engineering laboratories and verification & validation facilities

8 We Must be Good to do Good The capability of the Center is only as good as the capability of: People Tools Facilities The foundation for the GSFC Engineering capability is hands-on work Development is a combination of apprenticeship, mentoring and formal training Approximately / of the engineering workforce is engaged in hands-on engineering developments and deliverables In everything we do, we are both delivering on the present commitment, AND preparing ourselves and the people around us for the next one.

11 Summary The legacy of success of the Goddard Space Flight Center is no accident! We rely upon a learning culture of expertise, and the right balance of hands on and other work to increase the probability of mission success The leadership of the Center has been a product of a culture, that values technical excellence and integrity The vision for space exploration relies upon this expertise for its long term success This success is dependant upon a strong partnership between government and industry
