This document describes the processes for the life cycle of engineered systems from an engineering viewpoint and using engineering terminology. These processes can be applied to systems of interest, their system elements, and to systems of systems. Selected sets of these processes can be applied throughout the stages of a system's life cycle. This is accomplished through the involvement of stakeholders, with the ultimate goal of achieving customer satisfaction. This document also provides processes that support the definition, control, and improvement of the system life cycle processes used within an organization or a project. Organizations and projects can use these processes when acquiring and supplying systems. This document concerns engineered systems that can be configured with one or more of the following system elements: hardware elements, software elements, data, humans, processes, services, procedures, facilities, materials, and naturally occurring entities. In the context of this document and ISO/IEC/IEEE 12207, there is a continuum of human‐made systems from those that use little or no software to those in which software is the primary interest. When software is the predominant system or element of interest, the software life cycle processes in ISO/IEC/IEEE 12207 should be used. Both documents have the same process model but differ in activities and tasks to perform systems engineering or software engineering.
