Engineering Engineering Standardization at Standardization at ESA ESA – Improving technical quality and cost- – Improving technical quality and cost- effectiveness in space effectiveness in space Engineering Standardization Jean-Leon Cendral ESA Directorate of Technical and Quality Management, ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands Mario Merri ESA Directorate of Operations and Infrastructure, ESOC, Darmstadt, Germany Ravinder Choda SERCO, ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands with contributions from ESA Engineering Standardization Board (ESB) Members he importance of standardization for space activities in Europe is growing as the T space agencies and industry are faced with new technical challenges within more demanding economic constraints. Missions and satellites have challenging performance and lifetime requirements; the technology is becoming more sophisticated, with more and more reliance on onboard intelligence and autonomy, while both schedule and costs have to be reduced. Engineering Standards contribute to the technical quality of the space products and the cost-effectiveness of the development and operations, thereby helping to make these achievements possible. Why Space Engineering Standards? Standardization is important to ESA and the space industry as a whole as they reach for new frontiers and strive to meet new challenges, but with the knowledge that their satellites need to be delivered on schedule and within budget and still be of very high technical quality. Everyone knows that space missions are
