Introduction
Per NPR 7120.5, NASA Space Flight Program and Project Management Processes and Requirements, the payload project will implement the NASA continuous risk management process and develop a stand-alone Risk Management Plan that includes the content required by NPR 8000.4, Risk Management Procedural Requirements. The payload project shall follow KSC’s Safety and Mission Assurance Launch Services Division Risk Management System for risks impacting NASA KSC or KSC contracted facilities and shall apply AFSPCMAN 91-710 for risks impacting Air Force Ranges.
Note: See Volume 1 Chapter 3 of this document and NASA ELV Payload Safety Hazard Report NF 1825 for additional guidance.

A5.2.1. The Payload Safety Introduction Briefing (PSIB) is often the first formal meeting of the PSWG. PSIB presenters typically include the payload project, PSWG Chairperson, Range Safety, Launch Site Integration Manager (or equivalent), and other members of the PSWG as needed. The payload project is expected to provide the following information to a level of detail that is based on information availability and is consistent with the complexity of the mission, the maturity of the conceptual design, and the launch vehicle and launch site location.
