System Engineering Management
von Benjamin S. BlanchardTechnology/Engineering/General
A top-down, step-by-step, life-cycle approach to systemsengineering
In today's environment, there is an ever-increasing need to developand produce systems that are robust, reliable, high quality, supportable, cost-effective, and responsive to the needs of thecustomer or user. Reflecting these worldwide trends, SystemEngineering Management, Fourth Edition introduces readers to thefull range of system engineering concepts, tools, and techniques, emphasizing the application of principles and concepts of systemengineering and the way these principles aid in the development, utilization, and support of systems.
Viewing systems engineering from both a technical and a managementperspective, this fully revised and updated edition extends itscoverage to include:
* The changing areas of system requirements
* Increasing system complexities
* Extended system life cycles versus shorter technology cycles
* Higher costs and greater international competition
* The interrelationship of project management and systems engineeringas they work together at the project team level
Supported by numerous, real-life case studies, this new edition ofthe classic resource demonstrates-step by step-a comprehensive, top-down, life-cycle approach that system engineers
can follow to reduce costs, streamline the design and developmentprocess, improve reliability, and win customers.
