ABSTRACT

Requirements analysis This task clarifies and defines the problem statement in verifiable quantitative terms. Requirements and constraints are identified and documented in the system requirements baseline

Requirements validation This task validates and resolves conflicting requirements and assumptions from all stakeholders

Functional analysis This task is used to identify and develop all functional tasks required to execute the requirements baseline

Functional verification This task validates the functional architecture to ensure that it meets the minimum requirements baseline objectives

Synthesis This task includes all the design activities necessary to achieve specified functional architecture

Design verification This task is used to validate the system architecture against both functional and requirements baseline documentation

Systems analysis This problem-solving task is used throughout the SEM to make decision trade-offs. Supporting tasks include

1. Trade-off studies

2. System/cost-effectiveness analysis

3. Risk management

4. Configuration management

5. Interface management

6. Data management

7. IMP

8. TPM

9. Technical reviews

Control This management task is used to coordinate, document, and track the sustainability engineering tasks

e technical manager should ensure that all technical execution and management eŸorts are integrated in conformance with the SEM. Technical tasks, including task requirements from other standardization documents, are integrated to yield a single and complete task that focuses all activities on the common objective. Task planning and execution must implement and demonstrate multidisciplinary teamwork whereby all appropriate technical disciplines are applied to satisfy identiŽed needs. e integrated technical eŸort is documented in a sustainability engineering tasking description (SETD), an IMP, and an integrated master schedule (IMS).
