** Attention: This site is moving **
To enable the Workmanship Standards Project to provide
better up-to-date information we are moving much of the
content of this site to reside as a branch of the NASA
Electronic Parts and Packaging site.
The Inspection Pictorial Reference will continue to
reside at this location.
This move is expected to be completed by June 30, 2009.
The new location will be:
http://nepp.nasa.gov/index.cfm/5511.
No login or account is required.
Please contact

if you have questions about this site change.
OUR
CHARTER
The
NASA Workmanship Technical Committee (NWTC) serves as
the agency's technical authority to ensure that adequate
workmanship standards and training for electronic hardware
are available to NASA, its suppliers, and the aerospace
community. The NWTC is responsible for documenting workmanship
requirements and design criteria for the manufacture
of space flight, aeronautics, and mission critical ground
support electronic hardware. The committee evaluates
the adequacy of Voluntary Consensus Standards (VCS's)
per A-119 and provides advocacy when appropriate. When
no industry standard adequately addresses the workmanship
needs for NASA, the NWTC partners with VCS organizations
to generate an industry standard, or they generate and
maintain NASA Standards and Training material. As a
technical resource to the agency, the NWTC may be called
upon to generate manufacturing best practice guidance
to assist NASA programs manage risk and ensure safety
and mission success.
