Abstract.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This paper is addressing a void in many information sources about Systems Engineering. The true purpose of Systems Engineering, from a decision-making perspective, is addressed in this paper. That purpose is: to provide the right information, at the correct abstraction level and at the right point in time, for decision making. This statement is supported by identifying it\u2019s relevant parameters, followed by a few examples of mismatches related to these parameters. Finaly, some suggestions are made about how to find the sweet spot of presenting information for decision-making by relevant parties.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Paul Schreinemakers ESEP and holds a Bachelor\u2019s degree in Mechanical engineering and is a Master of Science in Engineering Product Design.
