DIN EN 13290-1:1999-06

The document is designed to facilitate the elaboration of a management system which is cost effective, appropriate to the project in which it is implemented, compatible with the actor's existing structures and which has the flexibility to adapt to changing needs throughout all the phases of an evolving project, and to new projects. It contains the basic requirements and overall principles to be applied for the management of space projects, from definition of mission objectives to final disposal. It defines the scope and interfaces of this discipline with the activities relative to the domains of Engineering and Product Assurance and explains how they are to be interrelated to ensure customer satisfaction. The set of related standards applies to all the actors for the execution of a space project.
