A Case Study for Using A Systems Engineering Approach to Demonstrate Assurance Against Common Cause Failure in Operating and New/Advanced Reactor Technologies.

THE U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION (NRC) is issuing this Sources Sought Synopsis as a means of conducting market research or as a market survey to determine the availability of potential qualified vendors with the capability to provide all technical, management, supervision, administration, and labor for subject matter expertise for an upcoming project titled A Case Study for Using A Systems Engineering Approach to Demonstrate Assurance Against Common Cause Failure in Operating and New/Advanced Reactor Technologies. The nuclear industry in the USA is adopting a Systems Engineering process, such as the Digital Engineering Guide (DEG) 3002011816, Decision Making Using Systems Engineering, developed by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). While the EPRI-developed guidance is inte
