Systems are becoming more complex
The complexity of engineering projects continues to increase. Systems comprise multiple disciplines – such as mechanics, electronics and software – which must work closely together. This calls for an integrated approach in which design, analysis and validation are properly coordinated from the outset.
The role of the systems engineer is growing
The systems engineer plays an increasingly important role within projects. This role provides an overview, monitors requirements and ensures that different disciplines collaborate effectively. This results in greater control over the overall system and helps prevent errors in later phases.
Managing complexity
A sound systems-based approach helps to identify risks at an early stage and make adjustments where necessary. This leads to more efficient processes and better end results. In practice, we see that projects with clear systems management proceed in a more predictable manner.
