INCOSE Colorado Front Range Chapter Virtual Meeting: The Latest INCOSE thinking on Resilience and Loss-Driven Systems Engineering by John Brtis
Resilience is defined as a system's ability to deliver required capability when facing adversity. Achieving resilience is often a critical but overlooked need in system development. John will provide an introduction into the latest thinking on resilience in the systems engineering community. This will include discussion of the meaning, scope, metrics, requirements, and the means of achieving resilience. Secondly John will introduce the broader and related concept of loss-driven systems engineering (LDSE). LDSE pursues the unification of the systems engineering specialty areas that address potential losses associated with systems. Examples of those specialty areas include resilience, safety, security, operational risk, CIPR, environmental protection, quality, and availability. Practitioners in these specialty areas often work separately from one another, but there are commonality and potential synergy among these specialty areas that should be leveraged. Examples include common vocabulary, taxonomy, modeling and analysis, adversities considered, losses considered, requirements, architectural & design techniques, and associated risks. Systems Engineering practitioners can harness this commonality to better manage system related loss. We call this unification LDSE. In March 2025 INCOSE approved an LDSE project under the FuSE initiative. John will share the findings to date of that project team.
