The Mission of the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is to license and regulate the Nation's civilian use of radioactive materials to provide reasonable assurance of adequate protection of public health and safety and to protect the environment.

The objective is to examine human risk-informed decision-making variability related to the Operating Power Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) and identify any insights that could enhance existing self-assessment and feedback processes.

This idea was inspired by the book “Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment," by Daniel Kahneman, Cass R. Sunstein, and Olivier Sibony.

The NRC hopes to improve human risk-informed decision-making variability related to the Operating Power Reactor Oversight Process (ROP) and identify any insights that could enhance existing self-assessment and feedback processes.

The scope of the resulting contract will include all deliverables and due dates necessary to achieve the desired outcomes of the contract.  The contractor is required to provide all required services (i.e., personnel, equipment, materials, etc.) to complete deliverables and ensure successful contract implementation and ultimate attainment of the objective(s).
