EA-SOP-0004 (VER 1.0), STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE: PROCEDURES FOR SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION INTEGRATION DEVIATION REQUEST AND TRANSITION PLAN (30 JUL 2008)

EA-SOP-0004 (VER 1.0), STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE: PROCEDURES FOR SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION INTEGRATION DEVIATION REQUEST AND TRANSITION PLAN (30 JUL 2008)., This document establishes the format and procedures for submitting a Deviation Request and Transition Plan for deviation from the prescribed NASA Application Integration Compliance Schedule. Details of the Compliance Requirements and Schedule are found in EA-STD-0001, Standard for Integrating Applications into the NASA Access Management, Authentication, and Authorization Infrastructure. The Deviation Request and Transition Plan covers the following two major types of cases: (i) Deviations from NASA Account Management System (NAMS) Integration; and (ii)Deviations from integration into the NASA Authentication and Authorization Architecture The Deviation Request and Transition Plan differs from a waiver in that while the deviation process recognizes that certain Centers and/or Mission Directorates can not fully comply with Application Integration requirements, it does not provide a variance to the requirement to integrate into the NASA Infrastructure. Instead this deviation process allows for deviations under specific circumstances and mandates a corresponding Deviation Transition plan that defines when the Center/Mission Directorate will be able to integrate into the NASA Infrastructure or decommission the Application.
