The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is going through final integration and testing and is planned to launch in 2021. The last remaining optical challenge for JWST is to fully align the observatory in flight to meet the optical requirements but this effort involves many system considerations to do this safely and efficiently and the entire effort will take several months. This talk will cover what it takes to deploy and optically commission the telescope including the many interactions and constraints of deployment, thermal, optical, attitude control and contamination properties of the observatory. The talk will cover the final optical requirements that the telescope will need to meet and will provide the roadmap of timelines, cooldown profiles, Wavefront Sensing and Control steps, system constraint considerations, and implementation of lessons learned from the ground test campaign that will result in meeting those optical requirements. The talk will also cover the organizational structure and processes in place to assure this process will be successful and efficient.
