About

Objective: The training aims to equip product managers and system engineers with practical tools tailored for requirement elicitation, understanding constraints, and finding creative and applicable solutions to entrepreneurial challenges in a system of systems environment.

Rationale: This is a hands-on and practical training for entrepreneurs, managers, and decision-makers who fulfill the roles of 'System Engineer' or 'Product Manager'. These individuals act as a bridge, with the responsibility to understand and distill the requirements and constraints of the customer and stakeholders they represent, translating these needs into a standardized language that development teams can comprehend.

Graduates of the Training Will:

• Understand the importance of system engineering in the development of complex systems.

• Be able to articulate the needs of a new system.

• Be capable of sketching a simple BPMN diagram and reading a complex BPMN diagram.

• Use a CONOPS image to characterize a complex system.

• Define customer requirements for a medium-scale project.

• Prioritize conflicting requirements using the AHP method.

• Address contradictions using the TRIZ approach for systematic inventive thinking.

• Prioritize concepts holistically using the House of Quality and QFD methods.

• Be capable of sketching a simple block diagram and reading a complex block diagram, which includes basic aspects of software menus, human engineering, mechanics, software logic, communication networks, and more.

• Characterize human-system interfaces.

• Define testing processes and integration experiments for systems.

• Consider the full project life-cycle aspects, including production, testing, operation, changes/updates.
