Abstract:
INCOSE has been working with the International Standards Organisation (ISO) to define a Systems Engineering data exchange standard ISO 10303-233 (AP233 as it widely known). ISO formally accepted the standard in 2010 following a lengthy international review process. The standard supports exchange and sharing of Systems Engineering data between dissimilar systems used by different partners in a virtual enterprise. It therefore enables integrated product and project views in an enterprise development program.
The scope of AP233 is wide ranging, from the business data such as project management, issue management and risk management, through to technical data such as requirements management, system modelling (both structure and behaviour), trade studies and links to analysis, etc. AP233 builds upon and extends the capabilities in other industry standards such as STEP and PLCS and has been developed within INCOSE to be used alongside OMG SysML. It provides a means of integrating product data from requirements, through systems engineering, including design, manufacturing into maintenance and disposal.
This webinar will provide an overview of the scope and usage of AP233, including results from a number of industry pilot studies. The use of AP233 to support SysML configuration and change
