NASA/SP-2010-3406 (REV. 3), NASA SPECIAL PUBLICATION: INTEGRATED BASELINE REVIEW (IBR) HANDBOOK (01-JAN-2010)., This document is intended to be a how-to guide to prepare for, conduct, and close-out an IBR. The document lists the steps that should be considered for each IBR, and offers tips for tailoring the IBR based on risk, cost, and need for management insight. Appendices to this toolkit contain samples of documentation typically used in connection with the IBR. Please note that these appendices are samples only, and should be tailored to meet the needs of individual projects and contracts. These attachments are available on the NASA EVMS Web Site at http://evm.nasa.gov/handbooks.html.. While an IBR has traditionally been conducted on contracts, it can be effective when conducted on in-house work as well. The same principles, objectives, and processes apply for in-house and contract IBR\'s; however minor changes may be necessary to the steps in conducting an IBR. Appendix A contains an IBR Checklist that can be used as a guide in conducting the IBR and ensuring that all steps are considered.
