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.
Bio: Richard Beasley retired last year from Rolls-Royce where he was an Associate Fellow of Systems Engineering, leading the Systems Engineering capability. He has been involved in INCOSE since 2007, serving as the UK chapter president 2014-16, INCOSE Director of Services 2022-2024, was one of original author team for SEBok, a lead author of the INCOSE Competency framework, and currently leads the International Working Group on “Embedding Systems Engineering Into Organizations”. He has written many papers for INCOSE International Symposia over the years, a number of which form the basis for this talk.

2022 Annual INCOSE Western States Regional Conference (WSRC)
Climb Above the Buzzwords
30 September - 2 October 2022 | Golden, Colorado, USA
Explore the theme and the topics for the WSRC 2022.

Get your climbing gear on and prepare to reach new heights in the art and practice of Systems Engineering. This year, the WSRC brings you a curated program that delves into the theory and PRACTICE of the latest Systems Engineering research.
We are challenging our presenters to "Climb Above the Buzzwords" to illustrate how they have reduced their research and theory to practice. They will illustrate how they are able to build value through their efforts and share tips and tricks so that you might realize the same success.
