The Lockheed Martin Systems Engineering Process is utilized by the Engineering Process Improvement (EPI) Program for selection of CAE tools for automating engineering tasks. Expanding the focus of Systems Engineering to include engineering process and practices provides a framework for defining a systematic approach to selecting and implementing processes and practices, i.e., tool selection and usage. The Systems Engineering approach for selecting EPI tools at Lockheed Martin Corporation is described, including the tasks associated with each step. The steps described follow the elemental tasks of planning, analysis, candidate selection, validation, evaluating alternatives and managing risk, and selecting the solution.
