Merging systems architecture and project management

In recent years, systems engineering (SE) is becoming more important in the Dutch high-tech equipment industry. Increasing system complexity and increasing team sizes put more emphasis on the explicit coordination of design activities. SE connects two worlds: the technical world with system models managed by the systems architect and the management world with process models managed by the project manager. In the Dutch high-tech equipment industry, we are already used to these worlds closely collaborating, as illustrated in this Mikroniek article.
