INCOSE PM-SE Working Group: Focus Webinar

May 16, 2024 8:30 AM - 9:30 AM Pacific Standard Time

Topic: PM-SE Focus Webinar - "Integrating PM and SE and suiting standard processes at the program and system life cycle data" 
Speaker(s): Steve Dam
Date: Thursday, 16 May 2024
Time: 08:30 Pacific Time Zone

Abstract: 
A United States Department of Defense Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP) in the Product Development (PD) life cycle phases can employ Design Structure Matrix (DSM) techniques to more accurately identify work products by modeling entities and relationships between the System of Interest (SOI) and its life cycle data. By taking a simplified view that the MDAP is a data transformation effort resulting in the establishment of a SOI technical baseline, DSMs and Domain Mapping Matrices (DMMs) can be used to completely expose the initial and intermediate work products necessary to achieve that outcome. This is accomplished by extending the product domain to create a data subdomain to model the program Data Item Contract Data Item List (DI CDRL) entities and relationships. DI CDRLs can be thought of as the data item content requirements specifications (example: data item requirement spec for the product item requirement spec). By using these DSMs and DMMs the MDAP can produce the lists of product item-named data items (PINDI) that are needed to document the system/product design, verification, and administrative reporting activities. The PINDIs then become the work product and can be used in subsequent Process and Organizational DSMs.
