DTIC ADA624598: Modelling the Management of Systems Engineering Projects

As described in the INCOSE Systems Engineering Handbook, systems engineering is an interdisciplinary, holistic approach to realise successful systems. It often involves a combined effort of a team of professionals from different disciplines and backgrounds. The primary role of the Systems Engineering Manager (SEM) of a complex project is to ensure that the technical conduct of the project and the technical products achieve the required quality. The SEM performs this role by defining the technical processes, documentation and output products within the engineering lifecycle of a project through systems engineering management. These aspects of a project are not brought together through any other single management process. Furthermore, systems engineering management supports the other business systems such as project management, engineering management and quality management. Particularly in early concept development phases of a project, it is important for those involved in Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) to not lose sight of systems engineering management as an enabler of engineering rigour. Engineers can overlook systems engineering management amongst the MBSE methods and tec
