Abstract

ABSTRACTIn the past few years, several models have been developed to measure systems engineering process or capability maturity. Two models, the INCOSE SECAM and EPIC SE‐CMM, have gained a great deal of attention and have been used as source models, along with their application methods, to create a US standard, comprised of a single “merged” model and application method, for measuring and improving systems engineering capability. The “merger” effort has been conducted by the EIA SECM Working Group, which has representation from the EIA, INCOSE, and EPIC and was formed under the auspices of the Electronic Industries Association (EIA). This paper provides key features of the “merged” model, a synopsis of each of the two source models, and relationships between the “merged” model and its two source models. A description is provided of some significant factors affecting the merger effort. The information provided should assist in gaining an understanding of, and in transitioning to, the “merged” model, which is the EIA/IS 731–1 Systems Engineering Capability Model (SECM).
