NPR 1441.1D - Chapter8

This records schedule is one of a series of schedules, approved by the Archivist of the United States, which furnishes authoritative instructions for the retention, destruction, or retirement of records held by NASA Centers or other offices. This schedule grants continuing authority for the disposition of records already accumulated or to be accumulated in the future.

The records described in Schedule 8 pertain to the management and operation of NASA construction of facilities, architectural, and engineering design records. These records relate to the functions that create, control, formulate and prescribe real or personal property or facilities management polices and procedures used by activities and offices applying these procedures. Records also included in this series/schedule are Research & Development (R&D) records that pertain to the management, operation, and performance of an R&D Project. Such records are created and accumulated by project organizations that have direct management control of in-house and/or contractor project activities. Project files relate to basic and applied research, and engineering development projects. The Project Office, normally at the laboratory or division level at a field installation, is responsible for maintaining the official files, and is designated as the Office of Primary Responsibility (OPR). This office is responsible for maintaining the files relating to a particular project and for insuring the ongoing collection and consolidation of essential documentation for the project. When more than one laboratory at an installation or more than one installation works on a project, the lead project manager should establish procedures to insure that all files relating to the project are collected at a single designated location for retirement and transfer.

General Definitions and Guidelines to use with Design and Construction Files: Generally, drawings pertaining to the design process lose their administrative usefulness after the final construction plans are accepted; these records should be considered inactive after the completion of the construction project. Precise measured drawings, which are used during the construction process, have a continuing value during the life of the structure, especially for repair and maintenance projects. The original construction drawings as well as repair and alteration drawings (or microform copies) should be considered active while the structure is still used, maintained or owned by the Federal Government.

Preliminary Drawings: Drawings and sketches that are conceptual in nature. These drawings are usually freehand studies that show the basic design of the structure, include the arrangement of rooms, general appearance of elevations and floor plans, as well as other details under consideration.

Models: Three dimensional, reduced-scale models which are prepared for illustrative or presentation purposes.

Intermediate and Pre-final Drawings: Drawings which are created and reviewed in preparation of the final working drawings.

"As Built" Drawings: Annotated copies of final working drawings or additional drawings which show changes in the initial construction from the original design.

Shop Drawings: Detailed drawings prepared by construction contractors or subcontractors of particular parts of the building which they are to supply or by manufacturers of products to be assembled in their shops. These drawings which include plans for architectural embellishments and interior design such as tile and marble work, special cabinet work, elevators, or heating systems, not only provide instructions for assembling the products on the job site, but may also be necessary for future repair and preservation projects.

Repair and Alteration Drawings: Original drawings which depict repairs and alterations to the building as it was originally constructed.

Contract Drawings: Copies of the original workings on which contract negotiations are based.

Standard Drawings: Final drawings for standard details and other documents created in their preparation.

Space Assignment Plan(s): Drawings which depict outline floor plans used for space assignments.

59-100	RESERVED
	101-113	PROGRAM AND PROJECT RECORDS

	What items 101-113 cover. These items designate appropriate retention of NASA program and project records produced through compliance with NPR 7120.5 or other authorized project management practices. It provides for permanent retention of substantive and historically significant records, and temporary retention of other records until the Agency no longer needs them. The terms "program" and "project" are defined in the current versions of NPD 7120.4 and NPR 7120.5. This schedule applies to all activities performed as part of programs/projects whether designated "tasks," "work packages," or other terminology.
	What items 101-113 do not cover. Records generated by some supporting activities such as procurement, financial management, property and supplies, personnel administration, and legal and patent issues are covered by other NASA records schedules. Questions about which schedules apply to specific records should be addressed to the Center Records Manager.
	Office(s) of Record. As used in these items, Office of Record refers to that office holding the official record copy of a specific record when multiple copies are used across offices, projects and centers. Most typically this is the office that creates and maintains the record, although specific offices may be designated, when appropriate, to hold official records generated across the program or project. In some cases there may be more than one official copy of a record when it has separate independent functions in different organizations.
	Media. Items 101-113 cover records in any and all media, in any and all formats, and produced using any and all tools. Records may include, but are not limited to, word processing documents, presentation materials, statistical data, test data, spreadsheets, databases, e-mail, e-messages, photographic materials, audio materials, film and video materials, drawings, and artwork.
	How to use the Notes. Notes 1, 2, and 3 list documents perceived to have permanent, long-term temporary, or short-term temporary value, respectively. These lists are intended to be inclusive rather than exclusive. They are to assist in selection, not to preempt selection. Program/project staff must exercise case-by-case judgment to ensure that permanent records are identified and retained while other records are destroyed appropriately. In cases of doubt about what item to apply, users of this schedule should contact their center records manager.
