What is Systems Engineering?

The systems engineering discipline is a method of managing the design of complex, multi-domain engineering products throughout the life cycle of a project. Teamcenter Systems Engineering provides an object model and tools for developing (authoring) and managing the data related to such projects.

A product development project typically starts with a mixture of business objectives such as:

• Customer expectations and specifications
• Compliance with government regulations and industry standards
• Consideration of current technology and market factors

These objectives lead to a set of requirements that communicate the product design to the various disciplines in the development process. Teamcenter Systems Engineering delivers complete capability throughout the process of requirements management, functional design, logical modeling, and physical design (RFLP).

Systems Engineering primary capabilities include the following:

• Requirements management
• Functional design
• Logical modeling
• Traceability
• Performance measurement
• Custom notes and supplemental information
• Data export
