ORR Success Criteria (SC)1. The ORR performance requirements [12 zodi, 0.4 mJy, and 35 in-guide stars] are sufficient to

meet the PLRA science objectives [inform future mission design and sensitivity >10 higher than state of the art]

2. LBTI ORR performance requirementsa) LBTI demonstrates 12-zodi sensitivity (1s, single star measurement, PLRA zodi model)b) In-guide plan (available nights) and assumptions (efficiencies and current capability) for SVP and HOSTS

are documented and the science scope (<2 zodi uncertainty on median) are all consistentc) Credible plans* documented to meet PLRA threshold performance requirements (6 zodi,

0.3 mJy) by end of science validation phase with risk that is medium or lower

3. LBTI science data management planning and procedures meet all PLRA requirements4. The necessary interferometer operations plans and procedures are complete, documented

and in place, and under configuration management5. The necessary pipeline processing algorithms, plans and procedures are complete,

documented and in place, and under configuration management6. The necessary staffing is in place and training has taken place7. Project risks are documented and acceptable8. During SVP, UA is ready to assume responsibility for LBTI operations and data delivery; and

NExScI is ready to assume responsibility for archive

* Scope, supporting analysis, baseline schedule, personnel, contingency, risks

Charge to the Board

• Evaluate whether the ORR performance requirements (SC 0) meet the PLRA science objectives/mission success criteria– Board and NASA APD/HQ briefed on April 14

• Evaluate LBTI on success criteria 1–7• Document findings and recommendations– Verbally at end of review– Circulate draft board report within one week– Deliver final board report to Project/ExEPO/NASA within

4 weeks of review (May 25, 2015)

• Serve to close findings within 3 monthsB-4

Ground Rules

• Board Chairman:– Calls time on presentations/discussions– Recognizes speakers/questions from audience

• Project will respond to written recommendations from Board– The board chair and PM will disposition all

recommendations– Project response will either provide closure

information, identify future action plan to close, or acceptance as an advisory
