scope:

This Standard defines the processes and specifies a set of Integrated Support and Services Engineering (ISSE) requirements aimed at the identification and provision of logistic support, such that the space system can be acquired, operated and maintained in its operational conditions, for the expected lifetime.

NOTE The subject of "Integrated Support and Service Engineering" was previously known in ECSS as "Integrated Logistic Support" that was covered by ECSS-M-70A. Due to new content of the document the emphasis is more on Engineering than on Management.

The requirements specified in this Standard are also oriented to implement mitigation measures against the risks considered critical for the operational objective during the whole space system life cycle.

This Standard is applicable for support segment of ground, launch and space segments, manned and unmanned space systems, ensuring that they are properly harmonized, mutually optimized and phased together since the very early design and development phases leading to integrated solutions that have the lowest possible Maintenances Costs within the operational and safety limitations and constraints imposed by the operational environment.

This Standard may be tailored for the specific phase, characteristics and constraints of a space project taking into consideration the supplier's position in the supply chain.

This standard may be tailored for the specific characteristic and constrains of a space project in conformance with ECSS-S-ST-00.
