Scientific paper

This paper describes the activities of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA's) Electrical, Electronic and Electromechanical (EEE) Parts Assurance Group (NEPAG) in its role as a resource sharing and coordinating force in EEE Parts assurance for space flight missions. NEPAG is a new organization, barely two years old. The EEE parts world for space applications faces a number of challenges as we enter the 21st Century but the most significant is clearly the economic incorporation of Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) parts without sacrificing reliability. NEPAG has collaborated in designing a NASA-funded evaluation plan to take a comprehensive look at COTS. A cost/benefit study has been performed to compare the cost of ownership of the US MIL parts NASA has traditionally used with COTS parts screened to an equivalent reliability level.
