Abstract:

The JPL practice of issuing a request prior to major project milestones for flight projects to prepare a lessons learned briefing was first implemented prior to the WISE PLAR. It is unlikely that JPL would have obtained this WISE project performance information through the informal channels that furnish most JPL lesson learned candidates. The resultant information on WISE project preparations for launch campaign contingencies will likely be informative to flight projects entering the mission phase that WISE was reviewing at the PLAR.
