The Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management (OCRWM) is executing a plan for improvement of the U.S. Nuclear Waste Management Program. As part of the plan, OCRWM is performing a systems engineering analysis of both the physical system, i.e., the Nuclear Waste Management System (NWMS), and the programmatic functions that must be accomplished to bring the physical system into being. The functional analysis effort is being performed by two separate teams working in parallel, one of which addresses the physical system functions, and the other, the programmatic functions. This paper presents information on the analysis of the programmatic functions. The objective of the program analysis effort is to provide a sound basis for development of a comprehensive and integrated set of program policies, standard practices, and procedures necessary to execute the program effectively and efficiently.
