The development of systems projects is often beset by problems because important parameters are not considered during their development. This paper sets out to determine a generic set of parameters for measuring the effectiveness of a system solution that can be used to compare different solutions, assess their development or consider strategies for replacement when in service. By consideration of a number of methods and models currently used within the domain of systems engineering, an attempt is made to produce a comprehensive list of measures of effectiveness.
