Systems design and construction as part of the Spacelab program are described. Systems development management which uses modular configurations to optimize for Spacelab system reliability, versatility and reusability is assessed. Technological development in spaceflight principals and methods are reviewed, covering the 60's in the U.S. along with the later impact of NASA projects on European space programs. The results obtained from spaceflight certification and checkout investigations on the Spacelab system are presented. The interface between a complex control system and system elements is explained. Project management experience in system management techniques provides a methodological model useful in planning and implementing future spaceborne systems.
