Project Background
An effort has been initiated to address personnel training specific to SE&I, and develop effective ways to tailor standard SE&I processes.
This activity will consist of an assessment of historical and current MSFC projects to determine the correlation between SE&I process and organizational implementation with programmatic and technical success.
An SE&I Skill Board will be established to provide guidance. Results will be documented on a web-based Systems Engineering
Guide currently under development at MSFC. Results will also be used to develop tailoring approaches to
standard SE&I processes, and lessons learned.

Assessment of System Engineering Processes
None (0): No direct reference to the SE processes.
Low (1): Reference to the SE process is evident in the documentation.
Medium (2): Reference to the SE process is evident in the documentation and
tailored to the specific project.
High (3): Reference to the SE process is evident in the documentation,
tailored to the specific project, and cross referenced with other documents.

Common Elements Across Successful Projects
Team members assigned 100% on the project Integration responsibility was either with contractor or
shared jointly Teams met at least weekly, several daily Agendas and action item lists were used Teams consisted of good skill mix Unified commitment was shared among team members Project celebrated successes

Elements that were not Common Across Successful Projects
Co-location of team members Common vision and common values not consistent Scope creep or number of changes were not consistent Reward structure not consistent Project size not consistent Leadership style not consistent Working approach not consistent

Next Steps
Compare and contrast with related DoD studies Socialization of data Online tailoring of system engineering data. But, it takes more than two data points to make a line.
