             abstract = "The use of small satellites has become a technological trend in 
                         the aerospace sector. To guarantee the specified reliability, 
                         every space mission requires adequate product assurance 
                         requirements, so that the risks and costs of the program are at 
                         predefined levels. This article proposes a process for selecting 
                         and customizing product assurance requirements applied to small 
                         satellites, aiming gains in manufacturing time, scope or cost, 
                         without increasing the risk of project execution. The proposed 
                         process cannot affect the objective of the mission, ensuring that 
                         all requirements successfully established are met. For this, a 
                         combination of two methods is proposed: AHP-Sort and the Borda 
                         method. The AHP-Sort is a variation of the Analytic Hierarchy 
                         Process, known as AHP methodology. Its use is indicated for 
                         classification and reduction of alternatives. In this work, 
                         specifications defined by the stakeholders are used, such as risk, 
                         lifetime and type of mission, which will be analyzed under the 
                         degree of importance, pair to pair, which will allow the 
                         classification of satellites in A, B, C or D. Once those classes 
                         are defined, the requirements referring to the different 
                         disciplines of the product assuranceare alocated to each class, 
                         compatible with the risk margin accepted for the mission. To 
                         complete the selection and customization of product assurance 
                         requirements, the Borda method will be used for ordering and 
                         ranking the requirements of each product assurance discipline by 
                         specialists who will make an assessment, establishing notes for 
                         each requirement, which, after being compiled, will indicate the 
                         ones that must be apllied to each class of satellite.",
