Identified Risk (risk identified by standard project risk management processes) | |
Description | Remedial Action |
Refuelling system technical, integration or performance envelope issues impacting acceptance of the aircraft. | Actively monitor system design, development and testing and enforce performance goals. |
Design and implementation of Human Machine Interface of newly developed systems is not acceptable impacting acceptance of the aircraft. | Continue to contribute to the Human Engineering Program to provide timely feedback. Actively manage and control Human Machine Interface development with Subject Matter Experts to ensure contracted requirements are met. |
Lack of air to air refuelling operational experience by key stakeholders impacting the design and certification of the final product. | Provide expert support from RAAF and United States Air Force for review of design. Highlight possible short comings to authorities and provide expert oversight of certification process. Involvement of USAF boomers in certification and qualification activities. Airbus Military engagement of additional boom refuelling expertise. |
Delivery of a sub-optimal Mission Planning System impacting final capability. | Clarification and agreement on a finite set of requirements with Airbus Military. Also liaise with other customers to maintain a common set of requirements across the customer base to assist with maintaining a common configuration. |
Unforeseen hardware or software issues encountered in the fuel system components developed by sub-contractors impacting schedule and/or performance. | Monitor development at reviews and ensure Airbus Military enforces contractual specifications. Ensure Airbus Military has a fallback plan to deliver a minimum capability whilst the full requirements are being met in the longer term. |
Unavailability of Simulation Subject Matter Experts for acceptance testing impacting acceptance of the Simulation Devices. | Coordinate requirements with the testing working group, identify solutions and provide training as necessary. |
