Scientific paper

In the recent past DOD has made decisions which reduced the flexibility in processing Titan expendable launch vehicles. This study explores the history of those decisions and their effects. It identifies the throughput capacities of Titan 4 Processing facilities. It evaluates the Cape's ability to meet the Titan 4 Mission Model. The study concludes that the mission model can not be achieved by doing business as usual. Changes must be made to the work schedules (double shifts, extended work weeks, etc.) and more technicians are required. The study recommends several facility modifications which can reestablish the flexibility in processing Titan 4 vehicles for launch. It also suggests further studies which may be useful in this area.
