Join us for our 8 July 2025 Chapter meeting featuring:
Presenter: Richard Beasley
Topic: Requirements Practice
Abstract: In this talk Richard Beasley will review various aspects of Requirements practice. This will essentially look at Systems Engineering from a requirements-filtered lens – looking at requirements as a key, foundational aspect of Systems Engineering, aspects of requirements elicitation including various common pitfalls and misunderstandings, and the integration of requirements understanding into the wider Systems Engineering information management and iterative approach.
