Processes for Engineering a System

Chapter 4: Requirements

Overview

This Clause provides requirements for processes used in engineering a system and is applicable to any product development regardless of its place in the hierarchy of the system structure (see Clause 6) or the enterprise-based life cycle phase (see Annex B). The processes are applicable for the engineering or reengineering of the end products that make up a system, as well as the development of enabling products required to provide life-cycle support to system end products. Figure 4a shows the relationships between the processes of this Standard.


Figure 4a: Relationship of processes for engineering a system
Note
  1. The application of the processes shown in Figure 4a is discussed in Clause 6 and Annex F. Appropriate processes of Figure 4a are applied recursively and iteratively to define the system products of the system hierarchy from the top down, and then, to implement and transition the system products from the bottom up to the user or customer.

  2. Although the requirements in this Standard are presented sequentially, in practice many associated tasks are concurrent and highly iterative, and have interactive dependencies that lead to alteration of previously established technical requirements.

This Standard specifies the 33 requirements as shown in Figure 4b.


Figure 4b: Requirements for engineering a system

The developer should: (1) decide which of the processes in Figure 4a apply to their enterprise; (2) decide which requirements from this Standard apply for the processes selected; (3) establish appropriate policies and procedures that govern project implementation; (4) define appropriate tasks for...
