You will provide a minimum of a 5-page double-spaced (Graphics and Tables are not included in the page count) analysis of a real system which successfully or unsuccessfully applied the principles of systems engineering. This is to be developed from your personal experience and individual research in the library, internet, INCOSE website, media, corporate sources, etc. Note that:

The analysis shall be of an actual system, and must demonstrate the successful planning or implementation of some of the systems engineering processes or the results of failure to apply these processes. Other aspects of the project you might report on include:
What were the social, political, economic and/or business management issues that affected technological choices and engineering decisions?

How did managers use the systems engineering process to account for these issues?
How did these issues affect engineering design / development / test decisions?

What were the “Lessons Learned”?
