This paper presents ongoing work to structure how we transform systems engineeringrncapabilities to address the how to engineer with a focus on operational capabilities rather thanrnjust systems. The paper is based on BAE Systems capability development work, informed byrnengagement with UK MOD as they move towards managing for capability outcomes.rnThe approach taken has been to construct a concept model and a management process:rn● Model – the priorities for the model are clarity and simplicity. The model describes arnframework divided into cells in which to describe the systems engineering capabilitiesrnnecessary to conceive, develop, support and operate systems to realise operationalrncapability.rn● Process – the process covers both the early discovery stage, and the predicted longerrnterm phase of capability evolution.rnThe paper discusses results to-date and potential future work towards a more rigorousrndescription and assessment tool, intended to have wide applicability.
