(Systems Requirement Analysis gives the professional syste...)
Systems Requirement Analysis gives the professional systems engineer the tools to set up a proper and effective analysis of the resources, schedules and parts that will be needed in order to successfully undertake and complete any large, complex project. The text offers the reader the methodology for rationally breaking a large project down into a series of stepwise questions so that a schedule can be determined and a plan can be established for what needs to be procured, how it should be obtained, and what the likely costs in dollars, manpower and equipment will be in order to complete the project at hand. Systems Requirement Analysis is compatible with the full range of engineering management tools now popularly used, from project management to competitive engineering to Six Sigma, and will ensure that a project gets off to a good start before it’s too late to make critical planning changes. The book can be used for either self-instruction or in the classroom, offering a wealth of detail about the advantages of requirements analysis to the individual reader or the student group. * Author is the recognized authority on the subject of Systems Engineering, and was a founding member of the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) * Defines an engineering system, and how it must be broken down into a series of process steps, beginning with a definition of the problems to be solved * Complete overview of the basic principles involved in setting up a systems requirements analysis program, including how to set up the initial specifications that define the problems and parameters of an engineering program * Covers various analytical approaches to systems requirements including: structural and functional analysis, budget calculations, and risk analysis

(System Engineering Deployment shows you how to make syste...)
System Engineering Deployment shows you how to make systems development work for your organization. It focuses on the deployment of the system engineering process that will propel your organization to excellence. The strategies covered will help organizations already using a systems approach fine tune their systems as well as giving organizations the tools to develop systems of their own. Topics include: • enterprise knowledge • organizational structure for work • the jog system engineering method • task cost and schedule estimating The author focuses on the development of a quality systems approach into programs that can be used to develop an integrated master plan and schedules. The book provides the optimum marriage between specific program planning and a company's generic identity. With System Engineering Deployment you can design an effective systems approach to perfection.

(This book shows the reader how to write a system engineer...)
This book shows the reader how to write a system engineering management plan (SEMP) that reflects the company's identity and is appropriate to most customers' requirements, e.g., MIL-STD-499, ISO 9001, the U.S. Air Force Integrated Management System, and EIA STD 632. The first section of this book provides a brief introduction to the process of developing a SEMP. The remainder contains a source model of a SEMP that is generic in nature. A computer disk is included with the book to provide the SEMP in a form (Microsoft Word) that can be used for the reader's own plan.

( The second edition of a bestseller, System Management:...)
The second edition of a bestseller, System Management: Planning, Enterprise Identity, and Deployment demonstrates how to make systems development work for any organization. Updated with new chapters, examples, and figures, it discusses the optimum marriage between specific program planning and a company's generic identity. The author focuses on the management aspects of the functional departments and programs and highlights the areas that must be improved in order to implement outstanding systems capability. The book examines the "what and why" of a process and includes a detailed example of a common process model and discusses how to document one. The author builds the case for a matrix structure in which the enterprise has several programs in the house at any one time, the complex problems these programs must solve, and the need for information from many different knowledge domains. He explores the rationale behind placing a generic process under a central management authority with contributions from all functional departments. The book then covers two sets of program planning strings based on the product entity structure and organizes management techniques for the three fundamental system developments efforts: requirements analysis, synthesis, and verification. It concludes with a discussion of assessment and improvement. Recognizing the three areas involved in the development of any new or updated system—the system under development, the enterprise itself, and the program within the enterprise responsible for the development work—this book examines how all three of these systems should be developed using the principals of system engineering. Clearly identifying the important elements of the enterprise and program information sets that have to be skillfully manipulated, it covers strategies that help organizations already using a systems approach fine tune their systems and give those not using a systems approach the tools to develop systems of their own.
