Study Notes
NASA Systems Engineering Handbook
- Handbook provides general guidance and information on systems engineering for the NASA community.
- Aims to increase awareness and consistency of systems engineering practices across the agency.
- Designed as a companion to implementing NPR 7123.1 and specific center handbooks/directives.
- Covers general concepts and generic descriptions of processes, tools, and techniques related to systems engineering.
NASA System Engineering—Scope and Depth
- Handbook's focus is on general concepts and process descriptions.
- It details generic processes, but does not delve into specific tools or techniques in great detail.
- Covers NASA's various product lines, including Flight Systems and Ground Support (FS&GS), Research and Technology (R&T), Construction of Facilities (CoF), and Environmental Compliance and Restoration (ECR).
- Uses the FS&GS product line as an example for illustrating the life cycle and milestone reviews, but recommends referring to specific requirements for each product line.
- Emphasizes the iterative and systematic application of processes throughout NASA system lifecycle (design, development, operation, maintenance, and closeout).
