Missing from the repertoire of mechanisms for systems integration presented at past INCOSE symposia are the International Standards for process component integration being developed in the context of industrial automation. To improve the efficiency of beneficially constructed interactions between systems and system components, the international community is adopting a wide range of standards through formal development and review processes. For this presentation, the focus is on the standards efforts for industrial automation conducted by ISO TC184 SC5 working groups. The work products range from shop floor communication structures through enterprise level system concept management – all with a process centric orientation. Of particular interest are the enablers of interoperable supply chain components and support for systems throughout their lifetime.
