Configuration Management

The Contractor Requirements Document (CRD) in DOE O 413.3 states for project

management systems for acquisition of capital assets:

A configuration management process must be established that controls changes to the

physical configuration of project facilities, structures, systems, and components in

compliance with ANSI/EIA-649, National Consensus Standard for Configuration

Management. This process must also ensure that the configuration is in agreement with

the performance objectives in the technical baseline.

DOE O 413.3 requires contractors to use ANSI/EIA-649 for configuration management.

Wherever the provisions of DOE O 413.3 apply, DOE and the contractor should

determine whether to use ANSI/EIA-649 in lieu of this standard or to use this standard to

supplement ANSI/EIA-649. In addition, Chapter II of DOE O 413.3 contains specific

requirements for Baseline Change Control that may apply (See Chapter 5).

FIGURE 2-1 CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT INTERFACES

Section 4.5.1.2 of DOE O 420.1 states specific requirements for configuration

management for DOE hazard category 1, 2, and 3 nuclear facilities and references this

standard for further guidance.

This standard recognizes the need for configuration management of software used to

perform functions or analysis related to safe operations, but it does not provide detail on

the special considerations related to software configuration management. For example,

DOE STD 1121 states that dosimetry codes should be subject to configuration

management including records of the version of the code, the user's manual, instructions
