The candidates will prepare sections of the SSUM and procedures as delegated and scheduled by the Operations WAM Work Area Manager. In addition to command, telemetry, design and operational concept descriptions, this will include identification of operational constraints and definition of ground monitoring procedures, flight control procedures and contingency recovery procedures. Maintenance of the SSUM and the procedures following the Spacecraft Integrator change control process. This may include maintenance of SSUM sections and procedures that were not originally written by the candidates. A list of SSUM open items shall be maintained by the candidates and published regularly. Participation in the formal reviews of the SSUM and procedures in the scope of the spacecraft CDR and QR and other SSUM gate reviews that will be defined at appropriate points when the SSUM is delivered to ESA. The candidates will be expected to answer allocated RIDs and to attend the review collocations. Review of the Flight Operations Plan produced from the SSUM by the ESOC operations team. AOCS Subsystem Assessment Review and assessment of the AOCS subsystem operations and FDIR inputs generated by the AOCS subsystem contractor.
