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

A comprehensive Systems Engineering (SE) reference model is introduced in the form of a compass. The model has been developed as part of the ongoing NXTGEN Systems Engineering project. The SE compass systematically delineates the principal domains of SE and provides shared reference points for both educational and industrial contexts. The SE compass articulates the triadic relationship among SE subjects, SE competencies, and SE roles. The SE Compass comprises eight subject areas: Business, Context, System-of-Interest, Architecture Reference, Engineering Know-how, SE Know-how, SE Processes, and Organization. These areas are positioned within the compass such that they may be interpreted in both cardinal and ordinal directions, which correspond to distinct SE responsibility orientations. The compass subject areas and their associated keywords have been chosen drawing upon INCOSE\u2019s SE Handbook as a primary reference. The center of the compass displays the Systems Engineer, represented through SE Competencies and SE Roles. Validation of the SE Compass was conducted through two use cases: first, as a navigational instrument in company workshops to characterize organizational systems engineering practices; and second, in the analysis of job function responsibilities articulated in SE role descriptions across multiple seniority levels.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pascal Etman Additional Speakers Saber Darmoul The SE Compass: A Holistic Model for Systems Engineering Practice Bio Pascal Etman.
