Abstract
The goal of this research is to characterize the distribution and time impacts of spacecraft
discrepancies found at the system level of integration and test, as well as understand the
implications of those distributions and time impacts for the spacecraft enterprise as a
whole. If discrepancies can be better understood, they can potentially be reduced or even
eliminated. Reducing discrepancies will result in cycle time reduction and cost savings,
as well as increased product quality and reliability. All of these potential outcomes are
indications of successful progress toward becoming a lean organization.
