Mission & Objectives

The TWG’s purpose, goal and scope for 2015-18 are:

 Purpose – To promote and grow the application of systems awareness, thinking and engineering within ground transportation

 Goal – Systems engineering is used to deliver complex systems in the transportation sector, and a broad and deep community of systems engineers is present throughout the supply chain.

 Scope – Ground transportation systems and their supporting technical and business infrastructures (with emphasis on highways, bus, rail and transit).
