Objective
In a context of increased world-wide competition experienced by European companies and faced with US initiatives, improvement of the software intensive systems process is becoming a strategic issue for competitive improvement of the industry. The POSE experiments will help by validating the applicability of the model within the industry, reduce the risk of adoption, and provide an easier means of implementing improvement actions.
THE EXPERIMENT
To achieve the above objectives the work has been split into the following Work Packages.
Management: To handle the overall co-ordination of the project, relationship with sub-contractors, the EC and the wider user community.
Staged Model Preparation: To establish the POSE reference model for immediate use, to consolidate it for future use and dissemination.
Initial Assessment: To operate the technology transfer from the theoretical approach thus prepared to its use on projects.
Experiments: To conduct one experiment at each site focusing on specific domain and organisation related issues.
Final Assessment and Results: To perform a new assessment at the end of the POSE project in order to evaluate the progress accomplished.
European Systems Engineering Process Improvement: To prepare and disseminate validated material to be used by the wider community interested in systems engineering process improvement.
EXPECTED IMPACT AND EXPERIENCE
Results and impact: Related to business aspects, the expected impact is, for Thomson-CSF operational Units, to realise that process improvement is a key element in improving competitiveness. By providing a framework and guinea-pig experiments, POSE will speed up this awareness.
Plans for the future: If POSE is successful, the assessments and their associated improvement plans could then be organised within all Thomson-CSF Units, according to an appropriate schedule.
