Automated System for Acting on Findings From Inspections

The Automated Nonconformance System, based at Stennis Space Center, is a computer network dedicated to administration of inspections and repairs of rocket engines. This automated system was developed to replace a manual system in which paper documents were used to document the steps of inspection and repair processes, and in which the documents had to be handled and transferred repeatedly according to complex procedures designed to ensure the completion of interdependent process steps in the correct sequences.
