2. Role of QA in I&T
Complete incoming receiving inspections per LAT- TD-02797
Review I&T MGSE and EGSE
Document facility readiness and continue weekly audits for compliance
Develop and approve I&T procedures, work orders, and process improvements

3. NCR Process
All nonconformances will be documented in the SLAC GLAST Nonconformance Reporting System
Nonconformances are to be documented promptly
SLAC QA will segregate or identify nonconforming material or hardware until nonconformance is dispositioned
All nonconformance reports shall have complete, concise problem identification, cause and corrective action

4. Nonconformance Reporting process
The assigned LAT Quality Engineer will coordinate appropriate MRB activities based on classification of nonconformance
Emphasis will be placed on working with applicable I&T Engineer throughout disposition effort
All rework must be documented on approved rework work order
Dispositions explain what actions will be taken or what information will be researched to resolve a nonconformance.
The disposition also serves as a means to record information discovered as a result or inspections or troubleshooting actions.
QA will assure that appropriate actions are taken to correct the discrepancy and return the product to an acceptable state

5. LAT Material Review Board (MRB)
LAT MRB Charter
Review material that does not conform to standards
Determine disposition(s)
Drive the development of effective corrective action to prevent recurrence
It is the goal of the LAT MRB to reach unanimous decisions for all NCR dispositions.
All final dispositions will be documented on the NCR
Determine root cause of nonconformance
Assign action to prevent recurrence
Document and retain NCR records
Determine if overstress analysis is required
Monitor MRB process for continuous improvement

6. Open Liens to flight hardware
1.  CAL power consumption at low temperatures exceeds allocation.
2.  CAL baseplate planarity fails to meet IDD spec.
3.  CAL energy range - individual CDEs do not meet the high energy limit of 100 GeV.
