Title: 

Program Management and Systems Engineering – Tensions and Opportunities

Abstract:  

The disciplines of Program Management and Systems Engineering are inherently intertwined. To develop and deliver complex systems, all three sides of the “iron triangle” (cost, schedule, and performance) must be known, traded, and evolved in consideration of the others. When there is tension and confusion over the  roles  of  PMs  vs.  SEs,  programs  suffer  from  deadline  overruns  and  failures.  As co-chair of the PM-SE Integration Working Group, Dr. Srivastava will discuss the recent work of the WG, and specifically the updates for the new INCOSE Systems Engineering Handbook v5. There will be a brand new section on PM-SE, and new content added to other sections as well. Furthermore, INCOSE’s discussions with new PMI leadership have been productive and have identified a wide range of collaboration opportunities. Dr. Srivastava will take inputs from the chapter as the two organizations will be working together to develop a long term strategic plan.
