This document presents the quality assurance (QA) philosophy and procedures for software used by the Performance Assessment Division of the Nuclear Waste Technology Department (NWTD) of Sandia National Laboratories, which directly supports the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP). Software procedures described herein will be incorporated into the general Performance Assessment Quality Assurance Procedures (QAP 2-2) and will apply to all Sandia and Sandia contractor activities related to Performance Assessment (except where the contractor has its own NWTD-approved QA procedures). This report presented the philosophy behind the QA procedures, provides the standards adopted for Performance Assessment software, discusses the implementation of these standards, and summarizes the software executive package, CAMCON, which aids in implementing the standards. 24 refs., 6 figs., 5 tabs.
