Abstract

AbstractSystems Engineering Management (SEM) is being developed hand in hand with the maturation of systems engineering, emphasizing the management of the joint project‐product ensemble.Most SEM applications use traditional Project Management (PM) methods and tools, including Gantt chart, PERT, Critical Path Method, System Dynamics, Earned Value Method, and Design Structure Matrix. Object Process Methodology has also been recently studied as a vehicle for Project‐Product Lifecycle Management. We examine how systems engineers perceive the extent to which PM methods support SEM. We verified that project and product are viewed as two complementary facets of SEM, and that certain PM methods address both domains better than others with respect to particular examined factors.
