Product development can be a difficult undertaking. The following blog post illustrates how the Advanced Systems Engineering Pillar "System Mastery" can be used to simplify the development process. You will get a clear understanding of the four capabilities "Manage your Requirements", "Think in Systems", "Integrate, Verify, and Validate", and "Keep Costs on Minimum" all why planning a Mount Everest expedition.

Increasing complexity of socio-technical systems makes cross-system product development in companies difficult. To master this complexity, company-related focal points are becoming increasingly important. The aim of the joint project AMeLie is to make the product development of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) more efficient. This is done through a structured approach, which increases efficiency and thus competitiveness. For this purpose, conventional systems engineering (SE) approaches from theory are transferred into manageable methods. These methods can be individually combined for solutions. In this way, development processes will be shortened in the long term and SE becomes applicable for SMEs. This Blogpost aims to provide an insight of the capability pillar “Process Efficiency”. It will cover the four capabilities defining an efficient process landscape, what they consist of and what you need to mind mastering all of them. Further, it will show the importance of efficient processes in the context of SMEs.

Increasing complexity of socio-technical systems complicates cross-system product development in companies. In order to manage this complexity, company-related points of focus are becoming increasingly important. The aim of the joint project AMeLie is to efficiently design the product development of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). This is done by a structured approach, which increases efficiency and thus competitiveness. For this purpose, conventional Systems Engineering (SE) approaches are transferred from theory into manageable methods. These methods can be individually combined to solve problems. In this way, development processes are to be shortened in the long term and SE is to become applicable for SMEs. Incurring costs should be reduced and the recertification process in the medical industry should also be manageable for SMEs.
