SECAM Improvement Summary 30 1Introduction1.1GeneralThe INCOSE Systems Engineering Capability Assessment Model (SECAM) Model Description, herein after referred to simply as the INCOSE SECAM, is a product of the Capability Assessment Working Group (CAWG) of the International Council On Systems Engineering (INCOSE). The SECAM is to be used in conjunction with the SECAM Assessment Method to evaluate systems engineering capability. When this is done properly, INCOSE believes that an organization practicing systems engineering in an integrated systems or integrated product and process development (IPPD) environment may evaluate its capability to perform systems engineering and determine areas for potential improvement. 1.2Endorsement of the SECAMThe CAWG is one of four working groups that comprise the Measurement Technical Committee of the Technical Board of INCOSE. At the INCOSE Winter Workshop in January 1996, the INCOSE SECAM and the SECAM Assessment Method received:
[Note: A Technical Paper is a designation given to all approved products of the INCOSE Technical Board to include handbooks, models, reports, etc.] This was the first product of an INCOSE Working Group to achieve the INCOSE Technical Board's approval. Previously, at the Fifth Annual International Symposium of NCOSE (now INCOSE) held in July 1995, several events of significance occurred with respect to the INCOSE/CAWG SECAM and the SECAM Assessment Method:
[Note: The word interim has been italicized for emphasis; this was a precursor to complete approval that was obtained in January 1996.]
"INCOSE will publicize and disseminate the CAWG developed Systems Engineering Capability Assessment Model (SECAM) and supporting documents as the INCOSE model and method to assess systems engineering process maturity, using the funds already allocated to the Technical Board budget line item." |
