Our Approach to System Engineering and Our Major Issues Dan Farris Titan
Customer Requirements • Operate a GOCO for depot support • AF Customer changed from Integrated Logistics Support to Systems Engineering model • ISC2 Contract TSPR like • ESC required use of RTM • ESC now requires CMMI Level 3 for contractors and major subs
Organization • System Engineering • Systems Engineering & Architecture Section • Engineering • Computer/Network/Software • CADD • System Technical Support • Project Control • Test and Evaluation • System Support • PDM • Tech Shop • Business Support
History • Bottoms Up Approach (2000) • Original efforts around EIA 731 • Level One and declining • Top down only with ESC mandate (2004)
Challenges • Management luke warm to systems engineering • Resources, including time, not provided • Cash flow crunch eliminated Systems Engineering & Architecture Section • CMMI Level 3 under discussion now • Systems Engineers transferred to different group
Accomplishments • Developed Requirements Management Function • Developed Trade Study standard process • Began linking systems engineering with project management • Began requirements gathering at project beginning • Began linking requirements to testing
Disappointments • Lack of desire to work towards CMM principles
