1976 NASA SPS Engineering and Economic Analysis Summary

10.0 POWER MANAGEMENT [20-22] The objective of the power management function is the central control, coordination, and integration of SPS status, operational maintenance base activities, SPS logistics, and ground receiving and distribution management required to sustain an operational SPS system. 10.1 REQUIREMENTS AND ANALYSIS The following requirements are established for power management: • Continuous status management of all operational SPS's • Management of all operational maintenance bases for SPS • Management of all operational logistics • Management of the ground receiving and distribution system • Interfacing with SPS manufacturing and construction management. 10.2 MANAGEMENT CONCEPTS AND FUNCTIONS Management concepts depend on certain criteria that can be derived from overall program requirements (Table 10-1). The Grumman ''level of authority" organizational pyramid model has been assumed as fulfilling the requirements for power management. The levels of management, their structure, and power management functions can be identified as follows (Fig. 10-1): • SPS status management involves a complete display and monitoring of all vital operational functions of each SPS, the operation and maintenance of communication with SPS data and information management, and the coordination with the operational maintenance base for actions to maintain operational status of SPS. • Operational maintenance base management covers the establishment of priorities and maintenance schedules for both SPS and base maintenance, the operation and maintenance of communication with the ground, data and information management, and the coordination with the SPS logistics management for required materials and supplies.
