A systems engineering approach to programmatic risk assessment, derived from the aerospace industry, was applied to various stabilization technologies to assess their relative maturity and availability for use in stabilizing nuclear materials. The assessment provided valuable information for trading off available technologies and identified the at‐risk technologies that will require close tracking by the Department of Energy (DOE) to mitigate programmatic risks.
