NASA: Assessments of Major Projects
GAO (2018) NASA: Assessments of Major Projects, Highlights of Report No. GAO-18-280SP, May 2018
This report provides GAO's annual snapshot for 2018 of how well NASA is planning and executing its major acquisition projects. In May 2017, GAO found that projects were continuing a generally positive trend of limiting cost and schedule growth, maturing technologies, and stabilizing designs. But, at the same time, GAO noted that many of these projects, including some of the most expensive ones, were approaching the phase in their life cycles when cost and schedule growth is most likely.
