Abstract

AbstractThe U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) have faced challenges in systems engineering in recent years (GAO, 2008, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2018). The Helix project started in 2012 as a multi‐year longitudinal research study mainly to understand what makes systems engineers effective. The previous Helix work on individual systems engineers is a critical input to this project focus. In 2018, the Helix team shifted from an exclusively workforce focus (within the Systems Engineering Research Center (SERC) Human Capital Development Strategy area) to encompass how organizations can become more effective at systems engineering as a discipline and includes organizational characteristics that influence the effectiveness of the systems engineering workforce, as well as how they better enable their systems engineering workforce. This paper provides an update on the research including the updated methodology to investigate the organizational systems engineering effectiveness.
